CTD profile data (109 casts) were collected in the northeast Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea from the Fishing Vessel Bristol Explorer (cruise BE1201) during a pelagic fish survey (Arctic EIS), August 6 to September 27, 2019. CTD casts occurred along a previously-defined trawl survey station grid with stations ~30nm apart. Northern Bering Sea stations were between 60°N and Bering Strait; Chukchi stations sat between the Bering Strait and 72.5°N. Profile data and water samples were collected by NOAA, AFSC as a part of the Ecosystems & Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (EcoFOCI) program in collaboration with Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). Profile variables include dual temperatures (°C), dual salinity, chlorophyll fluorescence(ugrams/l), oxygen concentration (umol/kg), transmission (percent), and calculated values Sigma-T (kg m-3) and oxygen percent saturation (percent). This data set contains 1-meter-averaged water-column profile data. Profile data from CTD instruments were ...
