Summary
Abstract: Conductivity, temperature and pressure were measured continuously at Georgia
Coastal Ecosystems LTER sampling location GCE3_Hydro (Sapelo Sound north of
Sapelo Island, Georgia) from 01-Jan-2002 through 31-Dec-2002. Observations were
logged at 30 minute intervals by moored Sea-Bird Electronics MicroCAT 37-SM
data loggers and downloaded approximately bimonthly. Salinity, depth and
sigma-t were calculated from the measured parameters using standard UNESCO
algorithms. This data set was collected as part of the GCE-LTER Project
continuous salinity, temperature and water level monitoring program.
