This dataset contains biological, optical, and physical data collected on R/V Gulf Challenger during cruise GC2002-4 from 2002-04-24 to 2004-06-28. These data include PAR, conductivity, density, depth, fluorescence, light_trans, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD profiler. These data were collected by Ann Bucklin and Mr Chris Manning of University of New Hampshire as part of the "Regional Ecology And Coastal Hydrography (REACH)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2023-01-23.
