attribute NC_GLOBAL cdm_data_type String Trajectory
attribute NC_GLOBAL cdm_trajectory_variables String trajectory
attribute NC_GLOBAL comment String LSS_XX = Large Scale Survey with vessel identifier; M8S = Masco-8 survey; WSS.X = Walton Smith surveys; P1 = clover-shaped triplet deployment; P2 = deployments to track the flow around drifter L_0491; P3.X = deployments in support of aerostat operations; LDA = large drifter array; VL = vortex line; DT = drogue test; none = other deployments
attribute NC_GLOBAL comment1 String Numbering scheme for \"node\" and \"vertex\": -- For the surveys, each drop constitutes a new node with a single vertex. 
attribute NC_GLOBAL comment2 String -- For P1, the drifters were grouped into nodes, then counted in chronological order, except that the WS launch is always vertex 1. That means that when the WS missed its launch, there is no vertex 1 for that node.

attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) surface drifters, raw, Gulf of Mexico, January - May 2016. Over 1000 near-surface biodegradable drifters were deployed in the northern Gulf of Mexico in January-February 2016 as part of the CARTHE Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER). The drifters were drogued at 0.5 m depth and reported their positions in real-time using SPOT Global Positioning System (GPS) units nominally every 5 minutes for about 3 months. No temperature or salinity sensors were attached to these drifters. This dataset contains the raw data, except that duplicate entries, out-of-range positions, and data before launch have been eliminated.  Data covers the period 20 January through 1 May 2016. This dataset was created by the Consortium for Advanced Research on Transport of Hydrocarbon in the Environment (CARTHE). This research was made possible by a grant from The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative.
