| Summary: | This is an archive of underway data from the Bering Strait mooring cruise on the research vessel Norseman II, from Nome to Nome, 8th-19th Sept 2022. This cruise collected meteorological data, thermosalinograph data, and the ship's acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data. These data were taken on a mooring deployment cruise, which placed 3 moorings (A2-22, A3-22, A4-22) in the Bering Strait region. These moorings are part of a long-term time-series started in 1990. Prior mooring cruises to the region have collected underway data. For an overview of previous and on-going Bering Strait mooring work, please see http://psc.apl.washington.edu/BeringStrait.html. Sample repository locations include the National Centers for Environmental Information (http:/www.ncei.noaa.gov) and University of Washington (http://psc.apl.washington.edu/HLD).
