IOOS Glider - NOAA OAP (Ocean Acidification Program)/IOOS, Sustained Underwater Glider Observations for Improving Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Intensity Forecast - ru30-20221011T1527- delayed

This project is conducting seasonal deployments to investigate carbonate chemistry and monitor ocean acidification in the Mid-Atlantic Bight. The glider used for the automated observation includes an integrated deep rated version of the Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor (ISFET)-based pH sensor. The pH sensor unit is complemented with existing glider sensors including a CTD, a WETLabs FLBBCD ECO puck configured for simultaneous chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscatter measurements, and an Aanderaa Optode for measuring dissolved oxygen. This deployment out of Sandy Hook, NJ ran cross-shelf transects zig-zagging southward and ultimately coming back inshore along E line for a recovery out of Tuckerton, NJ. This glider track covered Atlantic sea scallop and Atlantic surfclam habitats in the MAB. This delayed mode dataset contains CTD, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll a, CDOM and optical backscatter measurements. Dissolved oxygen and pH data are processed post-deployment. This is the third glider deployment in 2022 for this project.
