| Title: |
Trajectory profile data from glider ru39, including pH, Total Alkalinity, and Aragonite Saturation State, deployed by Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey in the Mid-Atlantic Bight from 2024-07-23 to 2024-08-23 (NCEI Accession 0306278) |
| Abstract: |
This dataset contains the trajectory profile data from glider ru39 from one seasonal deployment (2024-07-23 to 2024-08-23). This deployment (glider trajectory ru39-20240723T1442) was part of a project to conduct a seasonal baseline survey with a pair of gliders deployed in each season over two years with a full complement of available sensors to simultaneously map oceanographic and ecological variables. This glider was equipped with a coupled CTD/pH sensor, a WETLabs FLBBCD ECO puck configured for chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscatter measurements, an Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler (AZFP) multi-frequency echo sounder for active acoustic detection of pelagic organisms (transducers configured for fish using 38, 120, and 200 kHz), and a Vemco VMT fish telemetry receiver to track tagged species moving through the region. This deployment out of Sandy Hook, New Jersey ran a zig-zag transect along the coast of New Jersey, in and around current and planned offshore wind lease areas, and ended near Tuckerton, New Jersey. This delayed mode, high-resolution dataset contains CTD and chlorophyll a measurements, as well as pH, total alkalinity, and aragonite saturation state. Salinity, density, pH, TA, and aragonite saturation state have been calculated from raw variables. Acoustically-derived data are processed separately and not included in this package.
