Time series Moorings data sets.

Frank:

I have enclosed one (1) CD ROM when opened, contains 2 folders with a total

of 124 ASCII files. The files represent FOCI project moorings, time series data sets

(see breakout below) for two years field periods. I have also included moorings site

maps and data sheets showing each files deployment periods and file size. Data files

include Aanderaa current meters, mini temperature recorders, ADCP (type) data and

SeaCat CTD's.

Data Sets breakdown; note designation within individual file names.
