Trajectory and drift velocity of a sounding instrument in the field of nonuniform currents

We present a method for the determination of the trajectory of a sounding instrument and its drift velocity in the field of currents nonuniform in depth and develop special software for IBM/PC compatible computers. The proposed method and software are checked by using the well-known analytic solutio...

Summary:We present a method for the determination of the trajectory of a sounding instrument and its drift velocity in the field of currents nonuniform in depth and develop special software for IBM/PC compatible computers. The proposed method and software are checked by using the well-known analytic solution of a similar problem given by Academician A. N. Krylov. We also consider some special examples of application of the developed method to the processing of the data of an OLT profilometer.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
