LTER Georgia Coastal Ecosystems - December 2002 CTD, PAR, oxygen and chlorophyll profiles for the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Altamaha River transect

Four hydrographic surveys were performed on December 11, 2002, along an
east-to-west transect up the Altamaha River in Georgia (Altamaha River
Transect, GCE-AL). Vertical CTD profiles were collected at 1-2km intervals from
the -2km to 28km upriver along the transect during low and high tidal regimes.
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.
