Summary: | As part of the Shelf-Basin Interactions (SBI) project, early spring sampling was performed in the eastern area of the SBI study area using aircraft. Flights began on 1 April 2003 and finished on 15 April. During this time, we sampled 42 sites (49 Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) casts) on a series of 5 transect lines which bracketed and were parallel to the SBI current meter mooring line located at 152 W longitude. Stations were about 10 km apart along each transect line. A map of the achieved sampling sites is available (file: Sw3loc4a.pdf) and station locations, sampling dates and times are found in the file, Sw3vit-4.csv. At sites 10 through 49, a Seabird CTD (SBE-25) and Satlantic In-Situ Ultraviolet Spectrophotometer (ISUS) nitrate analyzer with a water sampling bottle was deployed through an 8 inch hole augured through the pack-ice. Continuous profiles of pressure, temperature, salinity, and ISUS-sensed nitrate concentrations were made from the ice hole to either the sediment surface or to about ... |
