| Description | This is a guide to the data that was collected during the Surface Wave Dynamics Experiment (SWADE) carried out from October 1990 through March 1991. The area studied was the Mid-Atlantic bight. Buoys collected data continuously during this time. Included are three 3-meter discus buoys the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) set in the area for this project, they then later added a fourth 3-meter discus and an experimental coastal buoy. Data from all of the NDBC buoys and stations from New England to Florida have been included in the data set; in addition, several other buoys monitored meteorological and ocean conditions for parts of the experiment. Several times during the project, there were intensive data collection periods. During the third of these, there were 7 aircraft and a ship collecting data. Maps of each mission from the platforms that have shared their data are included. The anonymous FTP site that has been established to make this data public is described. |
