| Summary: | Twenty-five temperature, salinity, and turbidity profiles from Sermilik Fjord and Kangerlussuaq Fjord in Southeast Greenland. The profiles were collected with an RBR conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) (#18859) during September 2012 from the M/V Fox. The profiles were manually examined and are provided as 1-meter (m) bin averages. The survey was comprised of: an along-fjord section of Sermilik; a section spanning the mouth of Sermilik Fjord; and seven profiles near Kangerlussuaq Fjord. These data were collected as part of a long-term project to monitor Sermilik Fjord to determine what water masses flow into the fjord; in particular, if warm, Atlantic water from the Irminger Sea is able to penetrate into the fjord. Observations have been collected in the fjord since 2008. |
