Passive surface drifter data in the bay of Sept-Îles in 2003
Lagrangian drift data were gathered by Denis Lefaivre in the Bay of Sept-Îles in 2003 as part of work for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada (DFO). The drifters were deployed from the small DFO boat Barachois, and consisted of 2 m long by 10.16 cm wide PVC tubes. These were weighted on o...

Summary: | Lagrangian drift data were gathered by Denis Lefaivre in the Bay of Sept-Îles in 2003 as part of work for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada (DFO). The drifters were deployed from the small DFO boat Barachois, and consisted of 2 m long by 10.16 cm wide PVC tubes. These were weighted on one end and affixed with a 22.86 cm ring 20 cm from the other, to increase stability. Positions were recorded every 2 minutes by a GPS emitter inside the top 20 cm of the tube, which remained above water. Sampling was done from September 9 to 11, 2003. |
