Title: NOAA CRED Shallow CTD Profiles 2011-2012 from the American Samoa and Pacific Reef and Assessment Monitoring Programs on the R/V Hi'ialakai (NODC Accession 0107470)
Abstract: The Coral Reef Ecosystem Division of the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science
Center, part of the National Marine Fisheries Service, National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), conducted 126 shallow CTD profiling
casts near Pacific islands, atolls and banks during 2 research cruises
totalling seven cruise legs on the NOAA Ships Hi'ialakai in 2011-2012.
Cruise HI1101 consisted of 3 legs and occurred in March - May 2011 near
Wake Atoll, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and part of the Pacific
Remote Islands Marine National Monument (PRIMNM) as part of the Pacific
Reef and Assessment Monitoring Program (Pacific RAMP). Cruise HI1201 had
4 legs. It occurred during February - May 2012. Areas included PRIMNM as
part of Pacific RAMP as well as islands within American Samoa as part of
the American Samoa Reef and Assessment Monitoring Program (ASRAMP).

Shallow Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) casts are vertical profiles
(max 30 meter depth, downcast only) of temperature, conductivity and
pressure. Data are collected at select nearshore locations, both
around islands or banks and within lagoons. Auxiliary sensors are
sometimes used to measure additional oceanographic parameters such
as fluorometry, beam transmission and dissolved oxygen.
