IOOS Glider - ru31-20160113T1728

Glider deployed as part of the CONsortium for oil spill exposure pathways in COastal River-Dominated Ecosystems (CONCORDE).  The goal of the project is to use a combination of observations and numerical modeling to Characterize the complex 4D physical, geochemical, and bio-optical fields influenced by pulsed river discharge to understand potential 3-D pathways of ODS to the coast and mechanisms for enhanced interactions of ODS with plankton and suspended sediment.  This glider is equipped to provide measurements of temperature, conductivity, salinity, density, oxygen concentration, currents, chlorophyll a, back-scatter and colored-dissolved organic matter; however, the current dataset includes only temperature, conductivity, salinity and density.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)...
