This dataset contains the edited ship's Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) underway data (horizontal and vertical water velocity components and SST) from the research vessel Norseman II collected in the Chukchi Sea during the 6 August - 25 August 2015 Arctic Marine Biodiversity Observing Network (AMBON) research cruise. The dataset includes bottom depth, water temperature, and water velocity averaged at 30-minute intervals along the ship's route. The data provides information on important Arctic Chukchi Sea ecosystem parameters related to the water masses entering the Chukchi Sea from the Pacific through Bering Strait. The data are in ASCII dat file and were transformed from the native format to netCDF as per NCEI guidelines. ...
