Post-processed CTD Near-full-depth Data at ER-0121 Site

This dataset consists of post-processed CTD near-full-depth data acquired between 1999 and 2003 at the ER-0121 site (36° 18’ N, 16° 6’ E) in the Ionian Sea (Mediterranean Sea). Original raw data were provided by Giorgio Riccobene and Antonio Capone. The CTD profiles were collected in the framework of the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope (KM3NeT) project (Katz, 2006; Rubino et al., 2012). Specifically, they were acquired during EMTEC cruises (April–May 1999), SINAPSI-4 cruise (March–April 2002), and Poseidon Cruise 298 (May 2003). <strong>References:</strong><br> Katz, U. F. (2006).
