This dataset contains biological, chemical, optical, and physical data collected on R/V Llyr during cruise MuLTI_2010 in the Bay of Fundy and North Atlantic Ocean from 2010-06-06 to 2010-08-26. These data include O2 saturation, O2_sat_pcnt, PAR, density, depth, fluorescence, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird SEACAT 19. These data were collected by Dr Charles E. Tilburg and Dr Philip O. Yund of University of New England - Marine Science Center as part of the "Does larval transport or physiological tolerance set the southern range boundary of a northern blue mussel? (MuLTI)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-01-03.
