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, chlorophyll fluorescence, oxygen, transmission, and others taken by CTD, 97 casts, from the fishing vessel Bristol Explorer, Arctic EIS research cruise BE1301, with participation from NOAA AFSC, Auke Bay Lab, PMEL, EcoFOCI from 2013-08-06 to 2013-09-27 (NCEI Accession 0290790) |
| Abstract: | CTD profile data (97 casts) were collected in the northeast Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea from the Fishing Vessel Bristol Explorer (cruise BE1301) during the Arctic Ecosystem Integrated Survey (Arctic EIS) pelagic fish survey, August 6 to September 27, 2013. CTD casts occurred at trawl survey stations and along transactions ~15 nm apart. Northern Bering Sea (NBS), stations were from 60°N and Bering Strait; Chukchi Sea stations sat between the Bering Strait and 72.5°N. The cruise was split into 3 legs, with leg 1 sampling in the southern Chukchi Sea, leg 2 in the northern Chukchi Sea and leg 3 in the NBS. Profile data and water samples were collected by NOAA, Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) as a part of the Ecosystems & Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (EcoFOCI) program in collaboration with the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL). Profile variables include temperature (°C), salinity, chlorophyll fluorescence (ugrams/l), oxygen concentration (umol/kg), transmission (percent), photosynthetic available radiation (PAR, microEinsteins/m^2 s) and calculated values Sigma-T (kg m-3) and oxygen percent saturation (percent). Fewer profile variables were collected on leg 1 due to failed primary CTD and use of backup that did not contain all sensors, limiting water sampling to 4 depth. The CTD issue was solved for legs 2 & 3. On leg 3 ship flooding caused damage to freezers and loss of some discrete nutrient samples and all discrete oxygen and chlorophyll samples (see included cruise report). This data set contains 1-meter-averaged water-column profile data. Profile data from CTD instruments were processed at NOAA/PMEL/EcoFOCI using standard techniques. CTD data contacts: Phyllis Stabeno, Jeanette Gann, Ryan McCabe, Calvin Mordy, Peggy Sullivan, Shaun Bell. Scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC); Auke Bay Laboratories Ecosystem Monitoring and Assessment (EMA); Arctic Ecosystem Integrated Survey (Arctic Eis); Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) ; Ecosystems and Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (EcoFOCI); University of Washington, Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean and Ecosystem Studies (CICOES) participated. Data are in NetCDF. Longitudes are in degW. |
