PARAGON 1 - KM2112 - Hyperpro Profiles

These Simons Collaboration on Ocean Processes and Ecology (SCOPE) data products were produced by the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa with support from the Simons Foundation. This dataset was collected on the R/V Kilo Moana, which departed and returned to Honolulu, HI, with most of the cruise spent following an anticyclonic eddy northeast of the Hawaiian islands. The Satlantic (now Seabird) HyperPro is an in-situ free-fall profiling unit designed to measure the apparent optical properties of the ocean with concurrent measurements of temperature, salinity, chlorophyll and dissolved matter fluorescence. The unit is equipped with one up-looking and one down-looking hyperspectral (350-800nm) radiometer with 10 ± 0.3 nm resolution, a WET Labs ECO-Puck Triplet, and temperature, pressure, and conductivity sensors. It also incorporates a ship-mounted surface (air) hyperspectral radiometer. These data are collated from the vertical profiles. Note that lat/lon was hand recorded at time of deployment and may not exactly match the ship's cruise log. Time stamp is in UTC.
