Oceanography Branch CTD Data Report : CTD_REPORT_2012006PC Oceanography Branch CTD Data REport CTD_REPORT_2012006PC

This report presents a summary of surface and bottom temperature and salinity data collected during the Northeast Fisheries Science Center’s PC1206 Atlantic Herring Acoustic Survey aboard the NOAA FSV Pisces. Data was obtained with a Seabird Electronics SBE Model 9/11+ profiling CTD (s/n 0912). Sea water samples were taken for the purpose of correcting salinity values. No salinity correction was necessary. This CTD was outfitted with an SBE43 dissolved oxygen sensor and a Wetlabs Wetstar fluorometer. Dissolved oxygen (mg/L) and chlorophyll-a concentration (mg/m3) is included in the data files, but is not presented in this report. Water samples were not taken for calibrating these additional sensors. 2013 NMFS (National Marine Fisheries Service) NEFSC (Northeast Fisheries Science Center) Submitted Public Domain 1861
