IOOS Glider - Test Deployment for Northwest Passage Project in MARACOOS Domain - amelia- 20180501T0000

This is a test mission for the Northwest Passage Project. This glider will be deployed in the southern Mid-Atlantic Bight. The goal of the mission is to conduct CTD and DO Optode cross-calibration with a recently calibrated MARACOOS glider Sylvia in the MARACOOS domain. It will provide additional hydrographic data in the Mid-Atlantic region even though its CTD has not been recently calibrated. The glider is scheduled to be deployed on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 and recovered on Monday May 14, 2018. The glider will be deployed near the 35 m isobath at mid-shelf off Wachepreague VA and fly offshore toward Washington Canyon. It will conduct virtual mooring profiling flight at the head of Washington Canyon down to 350 m for about a week, then head back inshore toward Wachepreague VA for recovery.cdm_data_type = TrajectoryProfileVARIABLES:conductivity (Sea Water Electrical Conductivity, S.m-1)conductivity_qc (conductivity Quality Flag)density (Sea Water Density, kg.m-3)density_qc (density Quality Flag)depth (m)depth_qc (depth Quality Flag)instrument_ctd (CTD Metadata, 1)lat_qc (lat Quality Flag)lat_uv (Depth-averaged Latitude, degrees_north)lat_uv_qc (lat_uv Quality Flag)latitude (Profile Latitude, degrees_north)lon_qc (lon Quality Flag)lon_uv (Depth-averaged Longitude, degrees_east)lon_uv_qc (lon_uv Quality Flag)longitude (Profile Longitude, degrees_east)precise_lat (Precise Latitude, degrees_north)precise_lon (Precise Longitude, degrees_east)precise_time (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)pressure (Sea Water Pressure, decibars)...
