Summary: | This dataset includes data from the 75 KHz Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) system onboard the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy during the 2006 HLY0601 cruise. This cruise was not a BEST project cruise, but the data are included here for historical purposes. The ADCP system measures currents in the depth range from about 30 to 300 m in good weather. In bad weather or in ice, the range is less, and sometimes no valid measurements are made. The individual data files have been collected into tar files by day according to the sequence number. The following is the list of file extensions and their meaning for the data files contained in the tar files: ENR - Raw Binary ADCP Data; ENS - Binary ADCP Data; ENX - Binary Ensemble Data; STA - Short Term Averaged Data; LTA - Long Term Averaged Data; N1R - Raw NMEA ASCII Data; N2R - Raw NMEA ASCII Data; NMS - Averaged Nav Data
