MOOSE PERSEUS T02_09 (EGO nearchos glider) deployment (Mediterranean Sea - Western basin)

The proposed research is based on the monitoring of the long term evolution of the North Western Mediterranean Sea with glider repeat-sections carried out in the framework of the ALLENVI/INSU/ SOERE MOOSE (http://moose-network.fr), INSU/MISTRALS (http://www.mistrals-home.org), and EU FP7 PERSEUS (http://www.perseus-net.eu).  The objective is to monitor the oceanographic variability (physical and biogeochemical) of the north western Mediterranean Sea, over a continuum of spatial and temporal scales. Two cross-basin repeat-sections with a repeat rate of about 10-20 days allow to monitor the main circulation features (Northern Current, North Balearic Front, Western Corsica Current) on a regular basis, as well as major processes such as winter intermediate and deep water formations and vernal blooms. The gliders regularly visit MOOSE moorings for cross-calibration purposes and to explore the variability around these moorings. i) T00 is a repeat-section between Nice and Calvi passing by the MOOSE mooring DYFAMED located in the central Ligurian Sea ii) T02 is a repeat-section between Marseille and Menorca passing by the MOOSE mooring LION located in the center of the deep convection area",
The observations of baker glider on perseust02_09 deployment are distributed in 4 files:
- EGO NetCDF time-series (data, metadata, derived sea water current)
- NetCDF profiles extracted from the above time-series
- Raw data
- JSON metadata used by the decoder
The following parameters are provided : 
- sea water temperature
- sea water conductivity
- sea water pressure
- sea water salinity
