(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2006)ADCPs (acoustic doppler current profiler) were first introduced to the oceanography community in the late 1970s (Rowe and Young, 1979). The instrument measure s water velocity over a range of depths using doppler ... -
ICES Guidelines for Moored Current Meter data. (Compiled October 1999; revised August 2001; April 2009)
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2009)Current meters are primarily used for measuring water velocity through time. Moored instruments may use mechanical (rotor and vane), electromagmetic, o r acoustic technology to perform the measurements. Current ... -
ICES Guidelines for Benchmarks. Version 1.
(International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2023)The guidelines describe the principles, elements, purpose, types, and prioritization of ICES benchmarks.
