This dataset includes profile, biological and physical data collected aboard the ALPHA HELIX and WECOMA during cruises HX201, HX203, HX205, HX208, HX211, HX215, HX216, HX217, HX218, HX219, HX223, HX225, HX226, HX228, HX230, HX231, HX234, HX237, HX238, HX239, HX241, HX243, HX246, HX248, HX252, HX253, HX254, HX257, HX258, HX262, HX263, HX267, HX268, HX269, HX270, HX272, HX276, HX279, HX280, HX281, HX283, HX286, HX292, HX293 and W0307A in the Gulf of Alaska from 1997-10-10 to 2004-12-09. These data include SALINITY, WATER TEMPERATURE, FLUORESCENCE, PHOTOSYNTHETIC ACTIVE RADIATION (PAR), TRANSMISSIVITY and SIGMA-T. The instruments used to collect these data include CTD. These data were collected by Thomas Weingartner of University of Alaska Fairbanks as part of NEP. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-09-28.
