This dataset comprises the current meter data collected off Maria island, East coast of Tasmania, during May-November 1988. The moorings were deployed in relation to a study of orange roughy distribution around Tasmania. There are 2 moorings with 4 current meters represented in this dataset. Parameters typically recorded in current meter data comprise east-west and north-south velocity components, water temperature, pressure, and salinity at a nominal depth for each current meter. The data have been processed and are archived as part of the holdings of the CMR Data Centre in Hobart.
