The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | One meter binned CTD data collected aboard the R/V Pelican during PE17-04 and PE17-20 along the Northern Gulf of Mexico, specifically the Louisiana Shelf region dominated by the discharge of the Mississippi River plume from 2016-08-28 to 2017-05-12 (NCEI Accession 0278018) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological, chemical, optical, and physical data collected on R/V Pelican during cruises PE17-04 and PE17-20 in the Gulf of Mexico from 2016-08-28 to 2017-05-12. These data include PAR, beam attenuation, depth, dissolved Oxygen, fluorescence, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD Sea-Bird SBE 911plus, CTD-fluorometer, LI-COR Biospherical PAR Sensor, Sea-Bird SBE 43 Dissolved Oxygen Sensor, and Wet Labs CSTAR Transmissometer. These data were collected by Jeffrey W. Krause of Dauphin Island Sea Lab and Kanchan Maiti of Louisiana State University as part of the "The biotic and abiotic controls on the Silicon cycle in the northern Gulf of Mexico (CLASiC)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-09-03. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Acquisition Description: Multiple hydrocasts were conducted at stations denoted in the bottle-file metadata. A SeaBird CTD was used with sensors for the following measurements: conductivity/salinity, temperature, pressure, dissolved oxygen, water transmission/attenuation, chlorophyll a fluorescence and photosynthetically active radiation. All hydrocast data were processed to 1-m bins. |
