        abstract: Satellite-relay data tags have been attached to several seals in coastal waters around Greenland in 2010-2012. The tags report seal position and profiles of temperature and salinity during each seal dive. The tags last up to one year, until the seal molts, and the tag falls off. Data are in TXT format.
        purpose: This data is intended to better understand water property changes near active outlet glaciers in coastal Greenland.
