ArcticNet 1304 - Baffin Bay and Northwest Passage CTD data

The CTD data was obtained during the 2013 ArcticNet scientific cruise #1304. The data were collected from July 27 to September 2, 2013, aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 115 casts associated to 59 stations, located in Baffin Bay and Northwest Passage. The following parameters were measured: tempe...

Description
Summary:The CTD data was obtained during the 2013 ArcticNet scientific cruise #1304. The data were collected from July 27 to September 2, 2013, aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 115 casts associated to 59 stations, located in Baffin Bay and Northwest Passage. The following parameters were measured: temperature, conductivity and pressure (with a Sea-Bird SBE-9plus), dissolved oxygen (Sea-Bird SBE-43), fluorescence (Seapoint chlorophyll fluorometer), CDOM (Wetlabs FL(RT)D), nitrate concentration (Satlantic MBARI-ISUS 5T), transmittance (Wetlabs C-Star transmissometer), light intensity (PAR; LI-COR Biosciences) and surface light intensity (sPAR; LI-COR Biosciences). Quality control procedures were applied to the data. Data are available on the Polar Data Catalogue and at the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. : Purpose: The physical data are one of the tools used to characterize the water masses between the Canadian Basin and the continental shelf and, to some extent, the water circulation in Baffin Bay. : Summary: Not Applicable
