Abstract:
Ocean velocities were collected by a Teledyne RDI 600 kHz RiverRay ADCP that was mounted on a Drifting Sensor Chain (""BERND"") during RV HEINCKE cruise HE667. The transducer was located at 0.3 m below the water line. The instrument was operated in single-ping, broadband mode with automatically selected bins (ranging from 0.1 - 0.8 m) depending on water depth and a blanking distance of 0.25 m. The velocity of the platform was calculated from position fixes obtained by the Global Positioning System (GPS) received at a GPS Mouse. Heading was obtained from the internal ADCP gyro. Heading from ADCP's internal gyrocompass and the navigation data were used by the data acquisition software ViSea DAS (AquaVision®) internally to convert ADCP velocities into earth coordinates. Accuracy of the ADCP velocities mainly depends on the quality of the position fixes as well as GPS mouse and internal ADCP heading data. ADCP data is provided at minutely sample rate. Raw data or secondly binned data are available on request.
