Note The BEST (Benguela Source and Transport) project was designed to investigate the form
of the Benguela Current and ratio of the Aguhlhas Current and South Atlantic Current
source waters masses. The transport of the Benguela Current and its variability was
measured by a moored array of instruments, inverted echo sounders (IES), inverted echo
sounders with pressure gauges (PIES), current meter moorings, and hydrographic surveys
as wells as analysis of the TOPEX/POSEIDON satellite altimeter data. This report
presents data from the current meter moorings.
