Description:The OTEC program of the Department of Energy has a requirement for physical oceanographic data. These data and other types of oceanographic data are necessary to evaluate the potential of various sites for OTEC operations. The type of physical oceanographic data required for this evaluation are given by Molinari and Festa (1978) and Molinari and Chew (1979). A suggested measurement program to obtain these data is also given in those reports, and was implemented, at two sites in the Gulf of Mexico, and one in the tropical South Atlantic.
This report represents the third in a series of reports which present data collected at potential OTEC sites. The first report listed data collected in the Gulf of Mexico, south of Mobile, Alabama (Thomas et al., 1979), and the second report presented data collected at the Mobile site and west of Tampa, Florida, and in the tropical South Atlantic (Molinari et al., 1979). This report lists data collected in the Gulf of Mexico and at the Tampa site during 1979 and 1980. The objectives of these reports are to present lists and plots of the data collected.
