The HOT program makes repeated observations of the physics, biology and chemistry at a site approximately 100 km north of Oahu, Hawaii. Two stations are visited about once a month: Kahe Point (Station 1: 21.34N, 158.27W) and Station ALOHA (Station 2: 22.75N, 158W). Various other stations are made intermittently in support of similar research objectives or mooring deployments. HOT thermosalinograph data have been obtained since cruise 63 using a SBE-21 Seacat thermosalinograph system. Data are recorded every 10 seconds from water collected by a continuous seawater system aboard R/V Moana Wave from a depth of about 3 meters. This NODC Accession contains thermosalinograph data for HOT cruises 101-121 during 1999 - 2000. CTD and Niskin bottle data from the same cruises are available in separate Accessions.
