Processed CTD and water sample data from research vessel Ocean Starr in the NE Pacific from 2012-08-31 to 2012-09-01 (NCEI Accession 0156932)

browse graphicPreview graphic
The expedition by research vessel Ocean Starr on Aug. 31 and Sept. 01, 2012 had the objective to recover and re-deploy a number of moored platforms from the CORC project (Consortium on the Ocean's Role in Climate) off southern California. To calibrate and validate the mooring data, three CTD casts and a small number of salinity water samples were collected; these data are reported here. The CTD salinity data have been quality-controlled and adjusted using the water sample data. The raw CTD data files are included for completeness as well.
