ArcticNet 0806 - Baffin Bay CTD data

The CTD data was obtained during the 2007-2008 ArcticNet scientific cruise #0806. The data were collected from September 5 to 25, 2008, aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 83 casts, associated to 44 oceanographic stations, in the Baffin Bay area. The following parameters were measured: temperature,...

Description
Summary:The CTD data was obtained during the 2007-2008 ArcticNet scientific cruise #0806. The data were collected from September 5 to 25, 2008, aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 83 casts, associated to 44 oceanographic stations, in the Baffin Bay area. The following parameters were measured: temperature, conductivity and pressure (with a Sea-Bird SBE-9plus), dissolved oxygen (Sea-Bird SBE-43), pH (Sea-Bird SBE-18-I), fluorescence (Seapoint chlorophyll fluorometer), nitrate concentration (Satlantic MBARI-ISUS 5T), transmittance (Wetlabs C-Star transmissometer), light intensity (PAR; Biospherical Instruments QCP2300) and surface light intensity (sPAR; Biospherical Instruments QCP2200). 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 and, to some extent, the water circulation in Baffin Bay. : Summary: Not Applicable
