GoMix High Resolution Profiler 3 (HRP3) data collected aboard the R/V Point Sur cruise PS18_28 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2018-06-22 to 2018-06-28

GoMix is a three-year project with the goal of understanding the mechanisms, spatial inhomogeneity and temporal intermittency of boundary mixing along the Northern Deepwater Gulf. There are several platforms. This data set concerns measurements obtained with an untethered free-fall instrument referred to as the High Resolution Profiler 3 (HRP3). The HRP3 was designed and built at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). The intent is for the instrument to obtain vertical profiles of three-dimensional absolute velocity, CTD, and microstructure over the entire water column. The R/V Point Sur PS18_28 cruise represents the instrument's third shipboard use.GoMix是一项为期三年的研究项目，旨在解析北部深水海湾沿岸边界混合的作用机制、空间非均质性与时间间歇性。该项目搭载多类观测平台，本数据集收录的观测数据，由一款被称为高分辨率剖面仪3（High Resolution Profiler 3，HRP3）的无系留自由下落式仪器获取。该仪器由伍兹霍尔海洋研究所（Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution，WHOI）设计并制造，其核心目标为在全水柱范围内获取三维绝对流速、温盐深（Conductivity, Temperature, Depth, CTD）以及微结构的垂直剖面数据。R/V Point Sur PS18_28航次为该仪器第三次开展船基观测应用的航次。
