Canadian ISDM (formerly MEDS) Drifting Buoy Observations

Alternative title(s)

d256000

Abstract

Canadian quality-controlled Integrated Science Data Management (ISDM, formerly MEDS) drifting (and some moored) buoy data, used as input for International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set (ICOADS). Data from drifters with deep drogues [http://www.meds-sdmm.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/isdm-gdsi/drib-bder/index-eng.html], collected by the Institut fur Meereskunde, at the University of Kiel from 1980 to 1996, are also archived in this dataset.
