CTD data from Nansen Legacy Cruise - Seasonal cruise Q2 Station: NLEG09

The Nansen Legacy cruise Q2 (Q2: 2nd quarter of the year) was part of the seasonal investigation of the northern Barents Sea and adjacent Arctic Basin. The cruise was conducted during the spring period a biologically critical time window when a large part of the annual primary production occurs and focused on comparing the physical, chemical and biological conditions along the Nansen Legacy main transect in open waters and within the sea ice. The cruise addressed objectives of the work packages Physical drivers (Research Focus 1), Human impact (Research Focus 2), The living Barents Sea (Research Focus 3) and Technology and method development (Research Activity C). These data are created from the CTD data published by NMDC for the whole cruise (https://doi.org/10.21335/NMDC-515075317). The values have not be changed.
