*** GENERAL INFORMATION ***
Subset of larger dataset collected during the Ems Dollard Measurements (EDoM) Campaign in 2018 and 2019. This subset contains data collected by so-called mooring chains (a string with a velocity and ctd/obs sensor near the bed, near the surface and in the middle of the water column)
It is composed of 6 files, each file containing the measurements collected on one location (3 in total) during one field campaign (2 in total). 

Filenemame convention: BM_<loc>_<year>.nc, where 
- MC is mooring chain, 
- <loc> is the location (GEI, GAT, KNO), 
- <year> is 2018 or 2019. 
See accompanying report(report-EDoM_v2.0.pdf) for location of stations.
