This dataset includes SeaBird MicroCat-37 data that was collected on four moorings deployed in the Hudson Strait, Canada from August 2008 to September 2009. Mooring A was located on the south side of the Strait. Moorings E, F, and G were all close together and on the north side of the Strait. Mooring E was located near the center, Mooring G was near the north shore, and Mooring F was in between Mooring E and G. Mooring A had four MicroCATs at depths of 25, 45, 100, and 160 meters. Mooring E had two MicroCATs at depths of 40 and 120 meters. Mooring F had four MicroCATs at depths of 25, 45, 80, and 320 meters. Mooring G had two MicroCATs at depths of 40 and 120 meters.

The objective of this project is to measure how much fresh water enters the Hudson Bay System from the Arctic Ocean (along the northern side of Hudson Strait) and how much freshwater exits into the Labrador Sea (along the southern side). To make these measurements, four moorings were deployed for one year across the Hudson Strait. Mooring A was located on the south side of the Strait, while Moorings E, F, and G were located on the north side of the Strait.
