Oceanographic and passive acoustic data collected during the US Coast Guard Cutter MAPLE transit of the Beaufort Sea and Northwest Passage, summer 2017

These data were collected to facilitate the long-term study of marine mammals and underwater noise in the Alaskan and Canadian Arctic. The data are also intended to contribute to our understanding of surface circulation and zooplankton community composition and biomass in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas and waters of the Northwest Passage and Baffin Bay, Canada.
