Overview:

 This data set provides measurements collected during the Lagrangian Transport and Transformation Experiment (LATTE) April 2005. Data were collected from moored instruments platforms deployed on the continental shelf off the coast of New Jersey.  Data was collected at 5 moorings designated N1,C1,C2,C and S1. Mooring details are inlcuded in the Mooring report. 



Data files are partitioned in the following way:

There is one set of files for each thermistor string.


Data format:

There are two file formats provided, Matlab (*.mat) and ASCII format.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Variables included in Matlab data files are:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Name    	Description
 dep      	Depth of the sensor (m)
 temp    	Temperature(degrees C) array length(dep)xlength(time)
 time   	Matlab Datenum Time




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ASCII files are row-column format.
