1 digital object.

Description

This collection contains data gathered during the Task Force Ocean (TFO) “Platform Centric ASW Processing with Through-the-Sensor Data Assimilation and Fusion” experiment off the coast of Southern California, collected in deep water off the continental shelf between 5 November and 14 November 2020. Data include observations from the R/V Sally Ride, wave gliders, Wirewalkers, and a drifting thermistor chain. These data, and associated figure plotting scripts, are used in the publication "Observations of turbulent structures at the base of the ocean mixed layer" (Andriatis et al., 2026). A second leg to this expedition was conducted between 15 November and 24 November in the Catalina Basin, with observations of Langmuir circulations published in Andriatis et al. (2024) with associated data in https://doi.org/10.6075/J0VQ32W2. Raw data are available from the corresponding author on request.
