Title: CTD, current meter, meteorological buoy, and bottle data from the Gulf of Mexico from the ALPHA HELIX and other platforms in support of LATEX A from 1993-03-18 to 1993-09-23 (NCEI Accession 9400149)
Abstract: CTD, current meter, meteorological buoy, and bottle data were collected from the Gulf of Mexico from the ALPHA HELIX and other platforms. Data were collected by Texas A&M University (TAMU) in support of LATEX A from 18 March 1993 to 23 September 1993. CTD parameters include temperature, salinity, and sigma-t. Current meter parameters include E/W velocity (U), N/S velocity, temperature, and conductivity. Bottle data includes concentrations of dissolved oxygen, phosphate, nitrite, nitrate, silicate, ammonium, urea, chlorophyll-a, and suspended particulate material.
