| Title: |
Water temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved inorganic carbon, and others taken by CTD and Niskin bottles from the research vessel Western Flyer in the North Pacific from 2019-07-23 to 2019-07-29 (NCEI Accession 0225432) |
| Abstract: |
This dataset contains data taken by CTD and Niskin bottles in the Central California Current system between Point Conception and Point Arena from the research vessel Western Flyer during the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, MBARI, Central California Carbon Ph and Oxygen (C3PO) cruise (leg 2) (EXPOCODE 31WF20190723) from 2019-07-23 to 2019-07-29. Twenty stations were occupied along three across shore transects, extending to ~250 km offshore. Thirty-three casts were conducted to 2000 m or water column depth, whichever was shallower. At all sampling stations, CTD casts were conducted to measure temperature, conductivity, pressure, and oxygen concentrations using CTD and oxygen sensors. Discrete water samples were collected throughout the water column at all stations in Niskin bottles. Laboratory analyses were run to measure dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), pH on the total scale, oxygen, nutrient concentrations, total alkalinity (TA), and chlorophyll a concentrations on a handful of stations. This effort was conducted in support of biogeochemical glider missions conducted in the California Current System, specifically, to answer how far offshore and deep do gliders need to dive in order to obtain stable, reliable reference measurements for in-situ validation of BGC measurements. Data are in CSV format. |
