Underway Hydrographic, Weather and Ship-state Data (JGOFS) from Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0801 (2008)

This data set was acquired with a ship-based Meteorological Sensor, Fluorometer, Kongsberg EM120 Multibeam Sonar system, Navigation system, and Thermosalinograph during Nathaniel B. Palmer expedition NBP0801 conducted in 2008 (Chief Scientist: Dr. David Caron). These data files are of JGOFS format and include Navigation, Fluorescence, Meteorological, Visible Radiation, Infrared Radiation, Temperature, Bathymetry, Conductivity, and Salinity data. This data set was created from calibrated data decimated at 1-minute intervals. Several fields are derived measurements from more than a single raw input. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Cape Adare Long-term Mooring (CALM) and Collaborative Research:Do crustacean zooplankton play a pivotal role in structuring heterotrophic plankton communities., and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): ANT05-38148 and ANT05-42456.
