Southern Ocean moored time series (south of 60°S) (OCEAN ICE D1.1)

This mooring timeseries compilation contains temperature, salinity, current velocity measured from a wide range of marine instrument in the Southern Ocean (90°S-60°S) since 1975. It provides with an opportunity to investigate the broad scale climatology of the Southern Ocean shelf dynamics and shelf connecitivity of dense shelf water and freshwater propogation, and facilitate the timeseries analysis across various timescales.
