browse graphicPreview graphic
Two sets of CTD data were taken during the 2005 surveys of the Louisiana continental shelf. Hydrographic data were obtained with the LUMCON SeaBird 911+ CTD system and a Hydrolab Surveyor 3. Nutrient, pigment, suspended sediment, surface salinity, secchi depth and station information data were also acquired.

Supplemental Information
The NOAA/NOS Center for Sponsored Coastal Ocean Research funded the collection of these data under grants NA03NOS4780037 and NA03NOS4780038.
Purpose The physical, biological and chemical data collected are part of a long-term coastal Louisiana dataset. The goal is to understand physical and biological processes that contribute to the causes of hypoxia and use the data to support environmental models for use by resource managers.
