IOOS Glider - MARACOOS - maracoos_01-20240124T1612

This project supports the deployment and real-time data delivery of autonomous underwater gliders in the coastal ocean to better resolve and understand essential regional ocean features. The goal of the project is to provide real-time baseline data on the thermal structure of the Mid-Atlantic Bight shelf waters. This project\'s secondary mission is to compare experimental animal CTD tag with glider CTD measurements, as well as to test tag-collected CTD profile transmission rates to the Argos satellite system. The glider provides CTD, chlorophyll a concentrations, and CDOM concentrations. The experimental CTD tag measurements are logged externally to the glider science bay and are not available in this dataset.cdm_data_type = TrajectoryProfileVARIABLES:beta_700nm (Beta 700nm at 117 degrees, m-1 sr-1)cdom (1e-9)chlorophyll_a (kg.m-3)commanded_alt_time (c_alt_time, sec)commanded_ballast_pumped (c_ballast_pumped, cc)commanded_climb_target_depth (c_climb_target_depth, m)commanded_dive_target_depth (c_dive_target_depth, m)commanded_heading (c_heading, rad)commanded_science_send_all (c_science_send_all, bool)commanded_thruster_on (c_thruster_on, %)commanded_weight_drop (c_weight_drop, bool)commanded_wpt_lat (c_wpt_lat, lat)commanded_wpt_lon (c_wpt_lon, lon)commanded_wpt_x_lmc (c_wpt_x_lmc, m)commanded_wpt_y_lmc (c_wpt_y_lmc, m)conductivity (Sea Water Electrical Conductivity, S.m-1)crs (http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326)density (Sea Water Density, kg.m-3)depth (m)dr_latitude (m_lat, degrees decimal minutes)...
