This dataset contains biological and physical data collected on R/V Yellowfin during cruise UpRISEE_SPOT_13-14 in the North Pacific Ocean from 2013-03-12 to 2014-07-06. These data include chlorophyll a, depth, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird, Fluorometer, and Optical Backscatter Sensor. These data were collected by Dr Burton Jones of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Dr Maria Prokopenko of Pomona College, Dr William Haskell of University of California-Santa Barbara, and Dr Douglas Hammond and Dr Naomi M Levine of University of Southern California as part of the "Collaborative Research: Use of Triple Oxygen Isotopes and O2/Ar to constrain Net/Gross Oxygen Production during upwelling and non-upwelling periods in a Coastal Setting (UpRISEE O2 upwelling)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-05-28.

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

Dataset Description:
This dataset includes chlorophyll a fluorescence and water temperature from gridded in-situ profiles from a Slocum Glider deployed between March and July in 2013 and 2014 in the San Pedro Channel, located in the Southern California Bight off the coast of Los Angeles.

These data were published in Teel et al., 2018.

In addition to the tabular form of this dataset available by clicking the "Get Data" button on this page, it is also available as a Matlab (*.mat) file containing data matrices and vectors.
* Note that the tabular dataset has a "DEPTH" parameter, but there is none in the above .mat file. Each row of the matrices corresponds to 1m depth increments starting with the first row which corresponds to 1m depth to the last row number 80 corresponding to 80m depth.

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
Glider deployment: For this study, a slocum glider was deployed between March and July in 2013 and 2014 in the San Pedro Channel, located in the Southern California Bight off the coast of Los Angeles. The glider was deployed on a 28 km cross-channel path between Catalina Island and the Palos Verdes Peninsula and completed a single cross-channel pass every 1.5–2 days (average speed 1 km h−1). Data were collected between ∼ 3 and 90 m, with the exception of when the glider crossed the major shipping lanes where the glider was constrained to depths below 20 m to avoid damage or loss from ship traffic.

The GMT time stamp indicates the earliest time stamp for data binned within a single profile.

Glider deployments were from small boats belonging to the USC Wrigley Marine Sciences Center or from the R/V Yellowfin.

Instruments: Teledyne Webb G1 Slocum electric gliders equipped with a WET Labs EcoPuck FL3 fluorometer (used for Chlorophyll a fluorescence), a WET Labs EcoPuck BB3 sensor (used for backscatter at wavelengths of 532, 660, and 880 nm), and a Sea-Bird flow-through CTD (used for temperature, salinity, and pressure).

For more methodology information see Teel et al., 2018.
