2021 SCOPE Gradients, Water Column Data

This dataset contains water column data collected via CTD/rosette profiles taken on the SCOPE Gradients 4 cruise, averaged at every Niskin bottle trip. The SCOPE-Gradients program is designed to test conceptual and mathematical models of biogeochemical organization across the transition zone between different ecosystems. This dataset was collected on the R/V Thompson during the Gradients 4 cruise which departed from San Diego, CA and ended in Honolulu, HI. A transect was performed on the 140 degree longitude line from roughly 19 degrees N to 2.5 degrees S before heading to Honolulu.
