SBC LTER: Ocean: Currents and Biogeochemistry: Moored CTD and ADCP data from Mohawk Outside Spar (MKO), ongoing since 2005

ADCP (Currents), CTD (Hydrography) and Optics data (Fluorescence, Beam Attenuation and Volume Scattering Function) were collected at Mohawk Reef in the Santa Barbara Channel (site ID: MKO). Data have been interpolated to a 20 minute interval. ADCP data are binned at a 0.5 meter interval, measured as height from the bottom to a maximum of 16 bins. All bins may not be filled, and in some cases, data from bins technically above the surface are included. VSF data are available at angles, 100, 125 and 150 degrees. CTD parameters include Pressure, Temperature, Conductivity, Salinity, Density and Fluorescence. The CTD array is located approximately 4.5 meters from the surface, and there are additional temperature thermistors near the CTD array, at the bottom, and mid way between these two.

本数据集采集自圣巴巴拉海峡莫霍克礁（站点编号：MKO），包含声学多普勒流速剖面仪（ADCP, Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler，流速数据）、温盐深仪（CTD, Conductivity-Temperature-Depth，水文数据）及光学观测数据，其中光学数据涵盖荧光、光束衰减与体积散射函数（Volume Scattering Function，VSF）三类观测指标。所有数据已被插值为20分钟的时间采样间隔。ADCP数据以0.5米为间隔划分距离库，距离库范围从海底向上延伸，最多包含16个距离库；并非所有距离库均存有有效数据，部分场景下还会包含理论上位于海面以上的距离库数据。体积散射函数（VSF）数据提供了100°、125°及150°三个观测角度下的观测结果。CTD观测参数包含压力、温度、电导率、盐度、密度与荧光。该CTD传感器阵列布置在距海面约4.5米的位置，此外还在CTD阵列附近、海底以及上述两个位置的中点处，部署了额外的温度热敏电阻。
