SHEBA Upper Ocean CTD and Thermal Microstructure, Western Arctic Ocean
Entry ID: ARCSS151

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: This data set includes conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) measurements along with thermal microstructure data (such as, turbulent thermal variance, turbulent kinetic energy, and vertical temperature gradient) collected from 12 October 1997 to 30 September 1998. The storage, redistribution, and ultimate release of the energy contributed by incoming shortwave radiation has major effects on ... View entire text

Quality To maintain data quality and accuracy, data collectors worked in teams that
rotated through a four-person field crew each day, thus team composition varied
by day. Additionally, each person worked with a supervisory data collector
every third day. A "tailgate" session was held at the beginning and ending of
each day to ... View entire text
