ICM4 (JADE)

ICM4 produced 75 current records from 5 moorings. You can view metadata and download the records by clicking on links in the table below. Each current meter record is identified in the table by its depth and the name of the mooring. If you download any of the records you should review the note on file format. You may want to look at a map of the array to see where the moorings were, or view a list of related publications. From here you can also move up one level to the list of WOCE experiments.

The current records listed below have been filtered and subsampled at one value per day. The tides and higher frequencies have been removed. CMDAC was not able to obtain the unfiltered data. The current meters described as "unknown" below were Aanderaas and Mors current meters. CMDAC has no information as to which was which.

Format of the current records

These files have been compressed with the ZIP compression utility. After downloading them, you will need to expand them. On a PC, WinZip or Pkunzip will do the job. Other utilities are available for the Unix and Macintosh environments. After expansion, you will have ascii files in OSU's stranger format.

The stranger format begins with several lines of header information that are meant to be machine-readable. They contain a Fortran format specification that will be useful in reading the file, a pointer to the first line of data, and a description of the data. Each line of the current record itself contains the time of the sample, the values recorded, and a line count.

Please be aware that end-of-line in these files is a carriage-return plus line-feed (the PC convention). This means that in a Unix environment (where a single line-feed serves as end-of-line) you may want to remove the carriage-returns.
