attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String This dataset has daily Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) water currents data from the\nTAO/TRITON (Pacific Ocean, https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/ ),\nRAMA (Indian Ocean, https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/pmel-theme/indian-ocean-rama ), and\nPIRATA (Atlantic Ocean, https://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/pirata/ )\narrays of moored buoys which transmit oceanographic and meteorological data to shore in real-time via the Argos satellite system.  These buoys are major components of the CLIVAR climate analysis project and the GOOS, GCOS, and GEOSS observing systems.  Daily averages are computed starting at 00:00Z and are assigned an observation 'time' of 12:00Z.  ADCP data are available only after mooring recoveries, which are scheduled on an annual basis.  For more information, see\nhttps://www.pmel.noaa.gov/gtmba/mission .
