Currents Cumnija Bay

The time series data consist of 4 sets of sub-surface sea currents which were collected at 10m depth in the same station during 4 deployments spanning the period between 29th May and 30th September 1996. The station was located off the coast of Cirkewwa. The measurements were made in connection with an oceanographic survey commissioned by Water Services Corporation with the intention of studying the hydrographic characteristics of this marine area for the purpose of a sewage outfall.
