NOAA Tech. Memo. ERL PMEL-6, NTIS: PB-259589/0, 50 pp (1976)


Several projects being conducted by the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) involve direct measurement of current using the model RCM-4 Aanderaa current meter equipped with conductivity, temperature, and pressure sensors. At present, PMEL has over 100 RCM-4's and obtains 200-300 current meter records per year. To cope with this volume of data, PMEL has developed a processing system to rapidly apply corrections and produce several routine products used in subsequent data analysis. This technical memorandum describes this processing system.
