These Ecosystems and Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (EcoFOCI) mooring time-series datasets consist of RCM-9 current data, Ecofluorometer, Seacat and nitrate data from moored instruments at 3 stations in the Chukchi Sea (C1, C2, C3). The Chukchi region is a shallow and seasonally ice-covered shelf, and instruments were located at near-bottom depths to avoid possible ice interference. Instruments were deployed on year-long moorings from the F/V Alaskan Enterprise in August, 2010 and from F/V Mystery Bay in August, 2011 during late-summer Chukchi Sea Acoustics, Oceanography, and Zooplankton (CHAOZ) research cruises. Moorings were recovered during the August 2011 F/V Mystery Bay cruise and the August 2012 F/V Aquila cruise. Cruises were funded by the Department of Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) through the NOAA National Marine Mammal Laboratory. Mooring operations were managed by EcoFOCI personnel from NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). Mooring time series data were processed at NOAA/PMEL/EcoFOCI using standard techniques. Missing data are listed as 1.0e+35. Time is recorded as UTC.

Purpose The overall goal of the CHAOZ study is to document the distribution and relative abundance of bowhead, humpback, right, fin, gray, and other whales in areas of potential seismic surveying, drilling, construction, and production activities and relate changes in those variables to oceanographic conditions, indices of potential prey density, and anthropogenic activities. This study has four component projects: oceanography, passive acoustics, zooplankton, and climate modeling. Passive acoustic moorings, deployed concurrently with bio-physical moorings will provide previously unattainable year-round assessments of the seasonal occurrence of various whale species in this planning area and their response to environmental changes. The CHAOZ study is a collaborative effort between NMML, the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL), the Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering Division (RACE) at AFSC, and Cornell University; funded through an Inter-Agency agreement between NMML and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM).
