Oceanography Branch CTD Data Report : CTD_REPORT_2013001S1 Oceanography Branch CTD Data Report CTD_REPORT_2013001S1

This report presents a summary of surface and bottom temperature and salinity data collected during the Northeast Fisheries Science Center’s 2013 Sea Scallop Survey aboard the UNOLS R/V Hugh R. Sharp. All data was obtained with the shipboard Seabird Electronics SBE Model 9/11+ CTD. The primary temperature sensor frequently malfunctioned; therefore, data from the secondary temperature and conductivity sensors were used in the preparation of this report. The cast numbering was started at 001 for each leg making it necessary to rename all the files for processing. Leg 1 CTD stations occurred on June 15 -21 and includes casts 101 –127; Leg 2 CTD stations occurred on June 27 – July 5 and includes casts 201 – 228; Leg III CTD stations took place on July 11 – July 16 and includes casts 301 – 324. Data presented here have been audited, however, corrections and/or updates may be applied at a later time. 2014 NMFS (National Marine Fisheries Service) NEFSC (Northeast Fisheries Science Center) Submitted Public Domain 1861
