Chemical and physical oceanographic profile data collected from CTD casts aboard the NANCY FOSTER in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-08-13 to 2010-08-21 in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event (NODC Accession 0069614)

Chemical and physical oceanographic profile data were collected aboard the NANCY FOSTER in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-08-13 to 2010-08-21 in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consists of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include CDOM fluorescence, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, hydrostatic pressure, salinity, sound velocity, temperature and water density. The instruments used to collect these data were CTD, fluorometer and oxygen meter. These data have undergone quality assurance and control procedures to validate their scientific integrity at the National Coastal Data Development Center. (NODC Accession 0069614)

本数据集为化学与物理海洋学剖面数据，由多政府及企业机构联合组建的地下监测单元（Subsurface Monitoring Unit，SMU），于2010年8月13日至2010年8月21日期间，搭乘“南希·福斯特”号（NANCY FOSTER）科考船在墨西哥湾完成采集，以应对2010年4月20日发生的深水地平线（Deepwater Horizon）原油泄漏事故。本次采集的数据涵盖有色溶解有机物（Colored Dissolved Organic Matter，CDOM）荧光、电导率、溶解氧、静水压、盐度、声速、温度及海水密度。采集该数据集所用的仪器包括温盐深仪（CTD）、荧光计与溶氧仪。本数据集已由美国国家沿海数据开发中心（National Coastal Data Development Center，NODC）开展质量保障与质量控制流程，以验证其科学完整性，存档编号为NODC Accession 0069614。
