This data set was collected during the first Saildrone Atlantic crossing, from Bermuda to Lymington, UK, and the return trip from the UK to Newport, RI, from May 25, 2019, to October 22, 2019.
One Saildrone uncrewed surface vehicle (USV), SD-1021, was equipped with a 300 kHz ADCP in addition to the standard Saildrone sensor suite. Scientific objectives for SD-1021 included studying current strength and direction in the North Atlantic, as well as taking oceanographic and meteorological measurements related to climate science.
This data set contains Saildrone platform telemetry and near-surface observational data at 1-minute resolution in NetCDF format and ADCP current data binned temporally at 5-minute resolution.
