Abstract:
One hydrographic survey was performed on September 18, 2002, along the Darien
River, North River, and north channel of the Altamaha River (Inner Marsh
Transect, GCE-IM). Vertical CTD profiles were collected at various nominal
stations along the transect during a high tidal regime. Conductivity,
temperature, pressure and optical backscatter were measured, and depth,
salinity and sigma-t were
... calculated for each profile. Data values collected on
the upcast were deleted, and the remaining data were averaged within 0.5m depth
bins and interpolated to produce a smooth profile for contouring. This data set
was collected as part of the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems LTER quarterly
hydrographic monitoring program.
