Vertical profiles of environmental parameters measured from physical, optical and imaging sensors during station TARA_016 of the Tara Oceans expedition 2009-2013

The Tara Oceans Expedition (2009-2013) sampled the world oceans on board a 36 m long schooner, collecting environmental data and organisms from viruses to planktonic metazoans for later analyses using modern sequencing and state-of-the-art imaging technologies. Tara Oceans Data are particularly suited to study the genetic, morphological and functional diversity of plankton. The present data set includes properties of seawater, particulate matter and dissolved matter from physical, optical and imaging sensors mounted on a vertical sampling system (Rosette) used during the 2009-2013 tara Oceans Expedition. It comprised 2 pairs of conductivity and temperature sensors (SEABIRD components), and a complete set of WEtLabs optical sensors, including chrorophyll and CDOM fluorometers, a 25 cm transmissiometer, and a one-wavelength backscatter meter. In addition, a SATLANTIC ISUS nitrate sensor and a Hydroptic Underwater Vision Profiler (UVP) were mounted on the rosette. […]

Tara Oceans 远洋科考项目（2009-2013年）于36米长的帆船上对全球海洋进行采样，收集了从病毒至浮游动物等生物的环境数据，以供后续通过现代测序和尖端成像技术进行分析。Tara Oceans 数据特别适用于研究浮游生物的遗传、形态和功能多样性。当前数据集包含了垂直采样系统（Rosette）上物理、光学和成像传感器采集的海水、颗粒物和溶解物的特性，该系统于2009-2013年的Tara Oceans远洋科考项目中使用。其包括2对电导率和温度传感器（SEABIRD组件），以及一套完整的WEtLabs光学传感器，包括叶绿素和CDOM荧光计、25厘米透射计，以及单波长后向散射计。此外，还安装了SATLANTIC ISUS 硝酸盐传感器和Hydroptic 水下视觉剖面仪（UVP）。
