Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

CTD, and other data collected from R/V Pelican off the Mississippi River Delta in the Gulf of Mexico for the GISR:G01 Field Study and Mooring Deployment Cruise from 2012-07-05 to 2012-07-11 (NCEI Accession 0130371)

Current meter moorings with internally-recording instruments were deployed on this cruise (G01) in July 2012. (The moorings were recovered and redeployed in July 2013). During this cruise a CTD/Rosette samplers, two shipboard acoustic Doppler currents profilers (75Khz and 300Khz), and an underway continuous sampling system were operated. This data set includes CTD data, NISKIN bottle samples (salinity, dissolved oxygen, DOC, and estimated oil equivalents) and documentation. Nutrients and DIC were collected but not analyzed at the time of this submission.
