LTER Georgia Coastal Ecosystems - May 2004 bin-averaged CTD profiles for the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Intracoastal Waterway transect

Two hydrographic surveys were performed on May 28, 2004, along the Intracoastal
Waterway between the Altamaha River south of Wolf Island and Sapelo Sound
(Intracoastal Waterway Transect, GCE-IC). Vertical CTD profiles were collected
at various intervals from -19km to 20km along the transect during flood and ebb
tidal regimes. Conductivity, temperature, pressure and optical backscatter were
measured, and depth, salinity and sigma-t were calculated for each profile.
Data values collected on the upcast were deleted, and the remaining data were
averaged within 0.5m depth bins and interpolated to produce a smooth profile
for contouring. This data set was collected as part of the Georgia Coastal
Ecosystems LTER quarterly hydrographic monitoring program.
