IOOS Glider - 2022 NOAA Hurricane Glider Project - ng357-20220803T0000

Deployment of a Littoral Battlespace Sensing (LBS) glider owned and operated by the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO). This glider was deployed in United States Virgin Island waters. LBS gliders collect temperature and salinity profiles in the water column. These gliders were provided and operated by the Naval Oceanographic Office (NAVOCEANO) and are part of a larger effort to deploy and operate over 100 gliders simultaneously. Data collected by these Littoral Battlespace Sensing (LBS) gliders is assimilated for use in underwater ocean forecasts that support a wide range of naval operations. The glider will repeat sections in United States Virgin Islands waters south and east of St. Thomas and St. Croix.cdm_data_type = TrajectoryProfileVARIABLES:conductivity (Sea Water Electrical Conductivity, mS.cm-1)conductivity_raw (mS.cm-1)density (Sea Water Density, kg.m-3)depth (m)instrument_ctd (CTD Metadata, 1)lat_uv (Depth-averaged Latitude)latitude (Profile Latitude, degrees_north)lon_uv (Depth-averaged Longitude)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, hectopascal)profile_idqartod_conductivity_flat_line_flag (QARTOD Flat Line Test for sea_water_electrical_conductivity, 1)qartod_conductivity_gross_range_flag (QARTOD Gross Range Test for sea_water_electrical_conductivity, 1)qartod_conductivity_primary_flag (QARTOD Primary Flag for sea_water_electrical_conductivity, 1)qartod_conductivity_rate_of_change_flag (QARTOD Rate of Change Test for sea_water_electrical_conductivity, 1)qartod_conductivity_spike_flag (QARTOD Spike Test for sea_water_electrical_conductivity, 1)qartod_density_flat_line_flag (QARTOD Flat Line Test for sea_water_density, 1)...
