ABSTRACT
Aanderaa recording current meters, moored off the Oregon coast at
fixed depths measured water temperature, current speed, current direction
and for some meters, conductivity and pressure. In addition to these subsurface meters, surface meteorological buoys were installed to measure
wind speed, wind direction, air and water temperature. Data from each
current meter string are shown by means of pertinent statistics, real time
plots of hourly values, progressive vector diagrams, and rotary spectra.

Introduction
The experiment called the Coastal Upwelling Experiment Phase II
(CUE-II) was an extension of work done during CUE-I. This report is a
companion volume to O.S.U. Data Report 57 (Pillsbury et al., 1974). For
details of the instruments and data reduction the reader should refer to
that volume.
The basic array for CUE-II was placed north of that of CUE-I in hopes
that the more simple bathymetry would simplify interpretation of the
records. Figure 1 shows the location of the array.
One meter was lost from the CUE-II array when the mooring was disturbed by a fisherman. The percent of data recovery from the meters
defined as:
percent data recovery -
days of data (speed and direction)
x 100%
days of potential data
was 87%. This was better than during CUE-I. The major contribution to
the data loss was from the 300 meter instrument in the Forsythia mooring.
Figure 2 gives the actual data returned from each instrument.
Description of Processed Data
The data from each string of current meters is presented separately.
The header page gives the pertinent information about the location of the
string, the data interval, and a general statement about the quality of the
data. The depth of the instruments is given two ways. The intended depth
is based on the mean pressure from the pressure sensor or on the actual
water depth when there was no pressure sensor on the string.

Each meter has a serial number assigned to it by the manufacturer.
Each successive tape recorded by that machine is numbered with the serial
number and the tape number. Thus, 485/10 indicates the tenth tape from
machine number 485.
The table of statistics presented next gives the arithmetic mean, the
standard deviation, the skewness, kurtosis, the maximum value, and the
minimum value. Each meter record is identified in this table by intended
meter depth.
Real time plots of the hourly values follow the table of statistics.
(For a discussion of the filter used to produce these hourly values, see
the Appendix 2 of Data Report 57 (Pillsbury et al. 1974.) For ease in
comparison, the plots have been grouped by true east-west (U) components
and true north-south (V) components where possible. Progressive vector
diagrams (PVD's) are all scaled to page size, and all scale numbers are in
kilometers. These plots represent a psuedotrajectory and each dot on the
PVD is midnight of successive days. Spectra presented are rotary spectra
as discussed by Mooers (1970) and Pillsbury (1972). Table 1 shows the
conversion from cycles/hour to cycles/day.

All meters recorded temperature, current direction, and
current speed every 10 minutes. In addition, the 80 and 120 m
meter recorded pressure. The surface buoy recorded wind speed
and direction, air temperature, and surface water temperature.
Buoy orientation sensor failed at surface. Surface speed
record was poor but salvageable. Meter at 300 m had no readable data.
