Fisherman CTD Profiles: Citizen science from trained Louisiana and Mississippi fisher folk, 2015-09-23 to 2016-11-10

This dataset contains conductivity-temperature-depth cast data collected between 2015-09-23 and 2016-11-10 by citizen scientists using a YSI Castaway or ProDSSII CTD sampler on their shrimping or tonging expeditions. The citizen scientists are part of a multi-ethnic community of commercial fisher folks docked in Louisiana or Mississippi, who participated in outreach designed to increase their trust in scientific research through interactions with research scientists. The dataset includes 41 individual cast files, a summary file including basic min/max/average statistics, and a Readme file listing participants, as well as a description of the included files and methodology.
