Water temperature, salinity, oxygen, currents and others taken by CTD, Niskin bottles, and ADCP from the research vessel Keifu Maru, cruise 18-02, in the north Pacific from 2018-0205 to 2018-02-06 (NCEI Accession 0220930)

This dataset contains water temperature, salinity, oxygen, currents and other data taken by CTD, Niskin bottles, and ADCP from the research vessel Keifu Maru, cruise KS18-02, in the north Pacific. The entire cruise was carried out during the period from January to March, 2018. Hydrographic observation was made using a Sea-Bird Electronics (SBE) 36 position carousel equipped with 10-liter Niskin water sample bottles, a CTD system (SBE911plus) equipped with JFE Advantech oxygen sensor (RINKO III) along 165E. Water samples were analyzed for salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients, pH and phytopigment (chlorophyll-a and phaeopigments). Current data was measured by Teledyne RDI's vessel-mounted ADCP system (38kHz Ocean Surveyor).

This dataset is U.S. State Department MSR U2017-024 as part of the World Data Service for Oceanography.
