Physical trajectory profile data from glider ud_476 deployed by University of Delaware in the Mid-Atlantic Bight from 2015-09-17 to 2015-11-24 (NCEI Accession 0239145)

Glider deployed as part of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Association of Coastal Ocean Observing System by Rutgers University and the University of Delaware to detect acoustic telemetered animals in the coastal ocean and relate them to in-situ water properties. Dataset contains CTD data only.

The National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) received the data in this archival package from the Integrated Ocean Observing System's National Glider Data Assembly Center (IOOS NGDAC). The IOOS NGDAC received the data in one or more netCDF files comprising an entire glider deployment. The data are measurements of physical oceanographic properties such as temperature, salinity, conductivity, and density. The IOOS NGDAC checked the files for compliance to their netCDF file convention, aggregated the files into a single netCDF file, and then submitted the file to NCEI for long-term preservation.
