SCM2 (Southern Ocean, Greenwich meridian)

This experiment and its precursors produced

You can view metadata and download many of the time series by clicking on links in the tables below. Each data record is identified in the tables by its depth and the name of the mooring. If you download any of the records you should review the note on file format. We have included here a map that shows where the moorings were, and two references that describe some results. From here you can also move up one level to the list of WOCE experiments.

Format of the current records

These files have been compressed with the ZIP compression utility. After downloading them, you will need to expand them. WinZip or Pkzip will do the job on a PC that is running Microsoft Windows. Under Linux, gunzip will expand these files. Other utilities are available for the UNIX and Macintosh environments (for example, unzip and/or gunzip are present on most UNIX systems). After expansion, you will have binary files in the netCDF format.

netCDF is a self-documenting format that can be accessed by a variety of software tools. You can click here to learn about netCDF and available software packages that can be used to read and manipulate netCDF files.
