This data set was acquired with a ship-based Fluorometer, Thermosalinograph, Meteorological Sensor, Echosounder Sonar, and Navigation system during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0806 conducted in 2008 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Ken L. Smith). These data files are of JGOFS format and include Salinity, Visible Radiation, Fluorescence, Temperature, Navigation, Meteorological, Infrared Radiation, Conductivity, and Bathymetry data. This data set was created from calibrated data decimated at 1-minute intervals. Several fields are derived measurements from more than a single raw input. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Free drifting icebergs: Influence of floating islands on pelagic ecosystems in the Weddell Sea, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): ANT06-50034. ...
