Description:
LOTUS was a two-year experiment near 34°N, 70°W, designed to acquire and
analyse a continuous set of measurements of currents and temperatures in the
upper, open ocean together with local hydrography, meteorology, and mesoscale
oceanographic features. The first scientific moorings were deployed in May
1982. The first year of mooring data, from May 1982- April 1983, is presented
here.
