This dataset comprises the current meter data collected from the WOCE PCM3 (Pacific Ocean Current Meter Array 3) in the Tasman Sea during November 1991-November 1993. The array was deployed close to 30 deg S, off Coffs Harbour (NSW coast). There are 6 moorings with 26 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.
