Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Bottle data (including temperature, salinity, density, O2) from CTD rosettes from R/V Atlantis and R/V F.G. Walton Smith cruises AT18-02 and WS1010 in the Gulf of Mexico Macondo wellhead area in 2010 (DWH_Deep_Microbes project) (NCEI Accession 0278140)

This dataset contains biological, chemical, optical, and physical data collected on R/V Atlantis and R/V F.G. Walton Smith during cruises AT18-02 and WS1010 from 2010-05-26 to 2010-12-02. These data include Dissolved_Oxygen, O2_sat_pcnt, colored dissolved organic matter, density, depth, dissolved Oxygen, fluorescence, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, salinity calculated from the CTD secondary sensors, sigma-t, sigma-theta, temp2, turbidity, water pressure, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird 9 and Niskin bottle. These data were collected by Samantha B. Joye of University of Georgia as part of the "RAPID Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill: Deep pelagic and benthic impacts of the oil spill (DWH_Deep_Microbes)" project and "Gulf of Mexico - Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill (GoMX - DHOS)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-08-01.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

Bottle data from CTD Rosettes from 2 cruises to the Gulf of Mexico during 2010.

Dataset Description:
Bottle data from CTD rosettes deployed on the WS1010 and AT18-02 cruises in the Gulf of Mexico.

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
CTD casts in the vicinity of the Macondo Wellhead were complicated by the presence of oil on the sea surface. A saltwater hose was used to spray the sea surface, parting the oil to create a clean area for the CTD to be dropped through; a similar procedure was used for deployment and recovery.
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
