Preview graphic

This dataset reports conductivity, temperature and depth data collected in the Northern Gulf of Mexico during the R/V Weatherbird II cruise WB-1318 from June 24-30th 2013. This data was collected using a CTD sled. Peripheral sensors collected oxygen, fluorescence, turbidity, and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) data.
