Computer-generated summaries of moored wind recorder, current-meter, and bottom-pressure measurements obtained from February to May 1975 on the Northeast Gulf of Alaska continental shelf about 25 km southwest of Icy Bay are presented. Included are statistics, histograms, time series, stick diagrams, progressive vector diagrams, and density spectra. Summaries of salinity-temperature-depth/conductivity-temperature-depth (STD/CTD) measurements recorded in an 800- by 200-km region bounded by the Alaskan coast and 58°N and by 141°W and 149°W are also presented. These computer-generated outputs include vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and sigma-t and tables of temperature, salinity, sigma-t, and dynamic height anomaly at selected depths. Meteorological observations associated with each STD/CTD cast are given.
