This dataset of acoustically tracked subsurface float observations was initially compiled by the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) Subsurface Float Data Assembly Center (WFDAC) at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in 2014 and was subsequently updated in 2017 and 2024 with more recent float datasets. The float observations are collected by acoustically tracked, neutrally-buoyant subsurface floats which collect position data while drifting beneath the ocean surface. The floats included are SOFAR, RAFOS, RAFOS-VOCHA, MARVOR, ALFOS, and RAFOS-enabled Argos.\n\ncdm_data_type = Trajectory\nVARIABLES:\nExperiment_Name\ntrajectoryID (Identifier of float within experiment, example: Float 10 of 63 in North Eastern North Atlantic ACCE project)\nfloatID (float serial number)\nfloat_type\ntime (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\ndeploy_date (Deployment date and time, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\ndeploy_lat (Deployment latitude, degrees_north)\ndeploy_lon (Deployment longitude, degrees_east)\nsurface_date (Surface date and time, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nsurface_lat (Surface latitude, degrees_north)\nsurface_lon (Surface longitude, degrees_north)\nlon360 (Longitude, degrees_east)\npressure (sea water pressure, decibar)\ntemperature (sea water temperature, degree_Celsius)\nve (Eastward velocity, m/s)\nvn (Northward velocity, m/s)\nInstitution\nPrincipal_Investigator (Principal Investigator (PI) of experiment)\n | https://erddap.aoml.noaa.gov/gdp/erddap/metadata/fgdc/xml/RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats_fgdc.xml | https://erddap.aoml.noaa.gov/gdp/erddap/metadata/iso19115/xml/RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats_iso19115.xml | https://erddap.aoml.noaa.gov/gdp/erddap/info/RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats/index.htmlTable | https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/phod/float_traj![]() | https://erddap.aoml.noaa.gov/gdp/erddap/rss/RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats.rss | https://erddap.aoml.noaa.gov/gdp/erddap/subscriptions/add.html?datasetID=RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats&showErrors=false&email= | NOAA/AOML & WHOI | RAFOS_SOFAR_Floats |
