Physical profile data from moored CTDs collected in central and eastern Long Island in support of a ferry-based observing system for Long Island Sound: application to physical influences on hypoxia project from 18 April 2002 to 6 September 2003 (NCEI Accession 0117356)

Moored CTD profilers were deployed at two sites, Central and Eastern Long Island Sound. There were a total of 5 deployments. Three were at the Eastern site, in Fall 2002 (denoted "fa02es"), Spring 2003 ("sp03es"), and Fall 2003 ("fa03es"). Two were at the Central site, in Spring 2002 ("sp02cs") and Spring 2003 ("sp03cs"). The deployment durations ranged from about 2 weeks to about 10 weeks. The profilers were Brooke Ocean Technology Seahorse wave-driven technology, with a Seabird pumped CTD system (911 plus) and Model 43 oxygen sensor that collected profiles of temperature, salinity, and oxygen concentration as a function of pressure at 4Hz during free ascents nominally once per hour.
