High-resolution CTD/STD, ocean station data from HUDSON and R/V Knorr in the Greenland Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, and others from 1982-02-14 to 1984-02-19 (NCEI Accession 8600054)
This data file contains compressed versions of physical- chemical oceanographic data collected using electronic CTD and STD recorders. These data were collected in the Norwegian sea from February to April 1982. These data were collected from the CSS HUDSON. The next data set data were collected in the Southern ocean and Southern Atlantic on the KNORR from October 1983 to February 1984 as part of the AJAX expedition. LEG I of the cruise is under reference number L00064; Leg II is under L00065. Both the data sets were submitted by Arnold Mantyla from Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO). The data are in Oceanographic Station Data (SD2) format.
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) and Ocean Station (C100) formats.
The Oceanographic Station Data (C100) format contains physical-chemical oceanographic data recorded at discrete depth levels. Most of the observations were made using multi-bottle Nansen casts or other types of water samplers. A small amount (about 5 percent) were obtained using electronic CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) or STD (salinity-temperature-depth) recorders. The CTD/STD data were reported to NODC at depth levels equivalent to Nansen cast data, however, and have been processed and stored the same as the Nansen data. Cruise information (e.g., ship, country, institution), position, date, and time, and reported for each station. The principal measured parameters and temperature and salinity, but dissolved oxygen, phosphate, total phosphorus, silicate, nitrate, nitrite, and pH may be reported. Meteorological conditions at the time of the cast (e.g., air temperature and pressure, wind, waves) may also be reported, as well as auxiliary data such as water color (Forel-Ule scale), water transparency (Secchi disk depth), and depth to bottom. Values of density (sigma-t) sound velocity, and dynamic depth anomaly are computed from measured parameters. Each station contains the measurements taken at the observed depth levels, but also includes data values interpolated to a set of standard depth levels.
The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity, and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t), and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals. A text record is available for comments.
