Title: CTD Data
Status: Completed
Publication Date: 2021-10
Abstract:

Environmental parameters collected during conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) casts typically performed daily at the end of marine mammal visual observations;.

Both processed and unprocessed CTD are provided
Purpose:

main goal is to provide vertical profiles of salinity, temperature, and oxygen content to a maximum depth of 500 m.
