| Vertical velocities knowledge is essential to study fine-scale physical processes in the surface layers of the ocean and to understand biological production mechanisms. However, these vertical velocities are often neglected due to mainly two reasons: their order of magnitude (mm.s-1) lower than the one of the horizontal velocities (cm.s-1), and the challenge of this in situ measurement. The FUMSECK cruise, which took place in spring 2019, in the gulf of Genoa, collected in situ measurements of vertical velocities using various instruments, including Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP). The analysis of these data, object of this report, required the elaboration of an original processing chain, first developed for the data of the 5th beam of a Sentinel... |
