The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

Title: Water temperature, salinity, oxygen, fluorescence, turbidity and others taken by CTD from the research vessel Norseman II in Bering Strait and the Southern Chukchi Sea from 2016-07-07 to 2016-07-15 (NCEI Accession 0222614)
Abstract: This is an archive of CTD data from the 2016 Bering Strait mooring cruise.

The cruise was funded by the NSF-Arctic Observing Network grants:
- PLR-1304052 (PIs: Woodgate, Heimbach and Nguyen)

The data are from a ~ 9 day cruise on the US vessel Norseman II, from 7th-15th July 2016, sailing from and to Nome, Alaska, USA, to the Bering Strait and southern Chukchi Sea. The cruise was also to service oceanographic moorings in the strait and those data are archived separately.

A total of 277 casts were taken and are included in this archive. No water samples were taken during this cruise. Stations were taken in US waters near mooring locations and on sections in the Bering Strait and southern Chukchi Sea. See cruise report for map, station locations, calibration, and processing details.

The data are taken using an SBE911p system, recording
- pressure
- temperature (dual system)
- conductivity (dual system)
- oxygen (dual system)
- fluorescence
- turbidity.

Data are in CNV format.
