Abstract:

Underway sensor suite data were collected as a part of operations conducted in northern Gulf of Mexico (lease blocks GC600 and GC647). These data were collected from R/V Pelican August 30-September 8, 2013. Data were collected via shipboard sea water flow-through system providing sea surface temperature, conductivity, chlorophyll fluorescence, and transmissometry data.
