Title: Trajectory profile data from glider ru39, including pH, total alkalinity, and aragonite saturation state, deployed by Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey in the Mid-Atlantic Bight from 2023-04-20 to 2023-05-12 (NCEI Accession 0300778)
Abstract: This dataset contains the trajectory profile data from glider ru39 from one seasonal deployment (2023-04-20 to 2023-05-12). This deployment (glider trajectory ru39-20230420T1636) was part of a project to conduct a seasonal baseline survey with a pair of gliders deployed in each season over two years with a full complement of available sensors to simultaneously map oceanographic and ecological variables. This glider is equipped with a coupled CTD/pH sensor, a WETLabs FLBBCD ECO puck configured for chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscatter measurements, an Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler (AZFP) multi-frequency echo sounder for active acoustic detection of pelagic organisms (transducers configured for zooplankton: 125, 200, 455, 769 kHz), and a Vemco VMT fish telemetry receiver to track tagged species moving through the region. This deployment out of Sandy Hook, New Jersey ran a zig-zag transect along the coast of New Jersey, in and around current and planned offshore wind lease areas, and ended near Tuckerton, New Jersey. This delayed mode, high-resolution dataset contains CTD and chlorophyll a measurements, as well as pH, total alkalinity, and aragonite saturation state data derived from raw measurements. This glider was paired with glider ru41-20230420T1638 which can be accessed at https://slocum-data.marine.rutgers.edu/erddap/index.html
