This dataset comprises the current meter data collected from the TROPICS97 study (off the mouth of the Sepik River, Papua New Guinea) during May 1997-June 1998. There are 3 moorings with 5 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.
