Comment:
Current profiling measurements collected using dual RDI-300 kHz Workhorse Sentinel ADCPs installed on the CTD rosette during ES033. The master ADCP is pointing downward and the slave ADCP is pointing upward. Data set is processed using the LDEO software package (A.M. Thurnherr) version IX.8.
