IOOS Glider - sylvia-20180501T0000

This MARACOOS glider mission will survey the continental shelf, shelfbreak, and submarine canyon regions in the southern Mid-Atlantic Bight. The goal of the mission is to conduct spring-time hydrographic survey, quantify the water masses and the configuration of the shelfbreak front, and test the LISST sensor in a submarine canyon setting. The glider is scheduled to be deployed on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 and recovered on Monday May 14, 2018. The glider will be deployed near the 35 m isobath at mid-shelf off Wachepreague VA fly offshore toward Washington Canyon. It will conduct a few repeated transect at the canyon head region and fly back inshore toward Wachepreague VA for recovery.cdm_data_type = TrajectoryProfileVARIABLES:trajectory (Trajectory Name)wmo_idtime (Profile Time, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)latitude (Profile Latitude, degrees_north)longitude (Profile Longitude, degrees_east)profile_idtime_uv (Depth-averaged Time, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)lat_uv (Depth-averaged Latitude, degrees_north)lon_uv (Depth-averaged Longitude, degrees_east)u (Depth-averaged Eastward Sea Water Velocity, m s-1)v (Depth-averaged Northward Sea Water Velocity, m s-1)latitude_qc (latitude Variable Quality Flag)longitude_qc (longitude Variable Quality Flag)time_qc (time Variable Quality Flag)depth (m)depth_qc (depth Variable Quality Flag)pressure (Sea Water Pressure, decibars)pressure_qc (pressure Variable Quality Flag)conductivity (Sea Water Electrical Conductivity, S.m-1)conductivity_qc (conductivity Variable Quality Flag)...
