Abstract:

Thirteen CTD casts made from the R/V Pelican in the northern Gulf of Mexico near DeSoto Canyon (June 30 through July 2, 2012) as part of a CARTHE benthic observation cruise. This dataset reports ship position, depth, temperature, salinity, density, fluorescence, and oxygen concentration for each cast.

Purpose:

These CTD casts were made to determine the hydrography of the water column in a region where bottom core samples were taken.

Data Parameters and Units:

ship position (lon,lat) [degrees], depth [meters], temperature [degrees C], salinity [PSU], density [kg/m^3], fluorescence [ug/l], oxygen [mg/l]
