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: | Ocean Currents (speed, direction, U, V), and biophysical measurements (temperature, salinity, oxygen, chlorophyll-a and other variables) collected from NOAA mooring deployments at long-term observatory site M2 in the Southeastern Bering Sea, Alaska, by the EcoFOCI group at NOAA, PMEL, 2021-05-02 to 2022-04-10 (NCEI Accession 0300470) |
| Abstract: | These time-series data sets are from a Current Profiler and other instruments on 2 moorings at NOAA Data Observatory "M2" on the southeastern Bering Sea Shelf. Moorings 21bsm-2a and 21bsp-2a (biophysical & ADCP, respectively) were deployed in May, 2021 (NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson DY21-03) and recovered in January, 2022 (21bsm-2a) and May, 2022 (21BSP-2A, NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, DY22-06). Surface mooring 21bsm-2a (indicated by "m") instrumentation included PMEL MTR temperature recorders, SeaBird SBE-37 (Microcat), SBE-39, SBE-56, SBE 16 plus (Seacat) profilers, a SeaBird Optical UV nitrate sensor (SUNA V2), a ProOceanus Mini Total Dissolved Gas Pressure (TDGP) sensor and WetLabs EcoFluorometers. WeatherPak surface instruments on the float were lost at sea with suspected sea ice damage. A subsurface 300 kHz Teledyne RDI Acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) mooring 21bsp-2a (indicated by "p") on a second mooring recorded water-column currents. Data include Zonal (U), Meridional (V) and Vertical (W) current components, temperature, conductivity, salinity, pressure, water depth, oxygen concentration, calculated oxygen percent saturation, nitrate, total dissolved gas pressure and raw chlorophyll fluorescence. Data are in NetCDF. The cruise was funded by NOAA, Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory EcoFOCI program and the Arctic Climate Program (ACP). Deployment and recovery operations on cruises were managed by EcoFOCI personnel from NOAA/PMEL. Mooring time series data were processed at NOAA/PMEL/EcoFOCI using standard techniques. Time is recorded as UTC. Data contacts: Phyllis Stabeno, Shaun Bell, Ryan McCabe, Peggy Sullivan. |
