One-minute average horizontal wind velocity data (not corrected for air-flow distortion) from the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) 2016/2017 legs 0 to 4.

Dataset abstract

This dataset contains the one-minute average horizontal wind velocity data from the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) 2016/2017 legs 0 to 4. The data has been filtered for spurious observations and the true wind correction has been redone using the quality checked one-minute ship track velocity data. This data set has not been corrected for air-flow distortion, which was caused by the ship's super structure. The flow-distortion corrected data should be used for studies interested in the actual true wind speed near the ship's location.
