Water temperature, salinity, and others taken by CTD and other instrumentation from the research vessel Mirai in the Chukchi Sea, Bering Sea, and North Pacific Ocean from 2023-08-25 to 2023-10-04 (NCEI Accession 0294912)

This dataset contains water temperature, salinity, and others taken by CTD and other instrumentation from the research vessel Mirai in the Chukchi Sea, Bering Sea, and North Pacific. This cruise aims to develop the dataset that could allow for a synoptic view of the totality of hydrographic and ecosystem changes taking place in the Arctic Ocean and facilitate advancing model development to predict the future state of the Arctic. We conducted hydrographic and biogeochemical surveys, including plankton, microplastic, and bottom sediment samplings, from the northern Bering Sea to the marginal ice zones of the Canada Basin. This dataset is U.S. State Department MSR RATS U2023-005 as part of the World Data Center for geophysics and oceanography. Data are in text formats.
