LTER Georgia Coastal Ecosytems - June 2003 CTD, PAR, oxygen and chlorophyll profiles for the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Doboy Sound transect

Two hydrographic surveys were performed on June 18, 2003, along an east-to-west
transect through Doboy Sound near Sapelo Island, Georgia (Doboy Sound Transect,
GCE-DB). Vertical CTD profiles were collected at approximately 2km intervals
from -2km to 12km along the transect during low tide and high tide conditions.
Conductivity, temperature, pressure, optical back scatter,
photosynthetically-available radiation, oxygen and chlorophyll a fluorescence
were measured, and depth, salinity and sigma-t were calculated for each
profile. Data values collected during the upcast were deleted. This data set
was collected as part of the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems LTER quarterly
hydrographic monitoring program. GCE Study Site GCE-DB -- Doboy Sound, Georgia,
USA. Doboy Sound transect used for GCE quarterly hydrographic monitoring
surveys. Nominal profiling stations are defined every 2km from -2km to 12km
and at 12.6km (relative to station 0km at the line of demarcation), based on an
estimated Thalweg line running up the main sound channel.
