NOAA RESTORE Science Program: population connectivity of deepwater corals in the Northern Gulf of Mexico: conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) cast data from 2017-07-20 to 2018-09-22 (NCEI Accession 0243646)

Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) casts were conducted during project cruises on July 20 - August 8, 2017 and September 17-22, 2018. Casts were conducted using remotely-operated vehicle (ROV) -mounted CTD instruments at project sampling sites located in the Northern Gulf of Mexico (GoM) at depths between 50-2200m, from De Soto Canyon to the Flower Garden Banks, and further south to Keathley Canyon. Each cast contains water downcast and upcast column profile data (conductivity, temperature, and pressure) corresponding to the descent and ascent of the ROV in each dive.
