Abstract:
CTD profiles (with an expanded suite of sensors) were collected
during multiple ship cruises to the Antarctic Apr-Sep 2001 and Apr-May,
July-Sep 2002. The general survey area includes: the continental
margin to the west of the Antarctic Peninsula extending from the
northern tip of Adelaide Island to the southern portion of Alexander
... Island, Marguerite Bay, and seaward to depths of 3000 meters. These
data have been stepped through post cruise calibration and computation
routines and are reported at standard pressure intervals (ie. 0, 10,
20, 30, 50 decibars etc..).
The high resolution, 1 decibar bin averaged, version of this data
set can be found at the above referenced web site. File name:
ctd_JK_one_meter.
