Physical ocean property profiles from Petermann Fjord, Greenland surveyed in 2015 by the Icebreaker I/B Oden (NCEI Accession 0282241)

browse graphicPreview graphic
The Icebreaker I/B Oden surveyed Petermann Fjord and adjacent Nares Strait in August of 2015. The ocean sampling program included vertical profiles from the surface to the bottom at 46 fixed stations. The vertically profiling CTD sensor (Conductivity-Temperature-Depth) measured temperature and conductivity at 24 Hertz on dual sensors as well as pressure and oxygen. These data are processed following standard processing routines provided by SeaBird Inc. who makes the sensors. Navigational data originates from the ships GPS (Global Positioning System) system and, along with the processing and calibration details, are included in each data file. The data were published in the peer reviewed Journal of Physical Oceanography as Heuze et al. (2017) and more thoroughly as Washam et al. (2018).

This dataset was submitted to NCEI by the US National Science Foundation (NSF) Arctic Data Center (ADC) in accordance with the agreement between NCEI and NSF ADC.
