Oceanographic data collected during the EX1402L2 (Gulf of Mexico Exploration and Mapping) expedition on NOAA Ship OKEANOS EXPLORER in the Gulf of Mexico from 2014-03-19 to 2014-04-04 (NCEI Accession 0117723)
Transit mapping operations will collect bathymetry, sub-bottom profiles, water column backscatter, and seafloor backscatter over the continental shelf and Claypile Bank in accordance with request from the scientific community. Survey mapping operations will collect continuous bathymetry, sub-bottom profiles, water column backscatter, and seafloor backscatter over the area to the south of Flower Garden Banks NMS, also in accordance with the scientific community. Data will provide details about biological habitats in the area and improve understanding of the ecological connection between mid-water and deepwater biological communities. During EX-14-02 Leg 2, multibeam, single beam, and sub-bottom profile data will be collected 24 hours a day and XBT casts will be conducted at an interval defined by prevailing oceanographic conditions, but not to exceed 6 hours.

Supplemental Information | The NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research sponsored the collection of these data. EX1402L2: Gulf of Mexico Exploration and Mapping, produced the following data: Ship Navigation; Ship Sensor Raw Data (SCS Data - Air Temp, Barometer, Doppler Depth, Event Data, Fluorometer, Met, Radiation, Relative Humidity, SAMOS, Sound Velocity, Thermosalinograph, Water Temperature, Wind Direction, Wind Speed) (Profile Data - asvp, XBT); Multibeam and Singlebeam Bathymetric Data. Other NOAA offices hold the data that NODC has not archived under this Accession. |
Purpose | This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. |
