SBC LTER: Wind data near Santa Barbara, from both land stations and ocean buoys
This data package includes wind data (e.g. wind speed, wind direction, wind velocity, air temperature, etc.) from 54 stations near Santa Barbara, CA since 1981. The wind data is collected from 3 agencies: Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District, California Department of Water Resources, and National Data Buoy Center. The data collected from the National Data Buoy Center also include the water temperature data. This data package is expected to update annually.
Daily sea surface temperature in Santa Barbara channel between 1982 and 2023
This data package contains sea surface temperature (SST) data in the Santa Barbara Channel area. Data was obtained from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) at 0.25° resolution for the time between 1982 and 2023. This Daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) Analysis (Version 2.1) derived its data from satellite (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)) and in situ platforms (i.e., ships and buoys) and yielded 18 gird points within the Santa Barbara Channel.
Advective nitrate fluxes, sea surface chlorophyll concentrations and other physical metrics in the Santa Barbara Channel (2012-2019)
This data package includes 6 files: (1 & 2) In-situ nitrate concentrations at the surface and mixed layer depth, and collocated remotely-sensed and reanalysis quantities of satellite sea surface temperature, 15-day cumulative wind stress, satellite sea surface chlorophyll with a 5-day lag, index of offshore position of the California Current, indices for along-channel and across-channel distance, and index for day of the year. (3) An R script for generating generalized additive models (GAMs) to predict nitrate concentrations at the surface and at the mixed layer depth using the collocated data in files 1 & 2. (4) Daily maps of satellite sea surface chlorophyll concentrations (SSChl), High-frequency radar (HFR) surface currents, weather research and forecasting (WRF) model wind-derived vertical velocities, estimated nitrate concentrations at the surface and mixed layer depth, horizontal advective nitrate fluxes at the surface and vertical advective nitrate fluxes. (5) Daily time series of spatial mean SSChl, principal component amplitude of the first mode of variability in surface currents estimated using complex empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis, alongshore pressure gradient, wind stress, spatial mean horizontal velocities at the western and eastern Santa Barbara Channel boundaries, spatial mean vertical velocities, spatial mean surface nitrate concentrations at the channel boundaries and across the entire channel, spatial mean mixed layer depth nitrate concentrations across the entire channel, spatial mean horizontal advective nitrate fluxes at the channel boundaries, and spatial mean vertical advective nitrate fluxes. (6) A MATLAB script for plotting examples of the daily maps and time series in files 4 & 5. These data were processed in order to investigate the impact of local nutrient delivery mechanisms on phytoplankton blooms in the Santa Barbara Channel, California, details of which are available in the study: Brokaw, R.J., D.A. Siegel, L. Washburn,
Functional Trait Measurements of Macroalgal Communities in the Santa Barbara Channel
This dataset contains trait and elemental composition data for macroalgal samples collected across depth gradients at multiple sites in the Santa Barbara Channel, California. Each sample represents an individual specimen characterized by morphological measurements (e.g., blade thickness, stipe diameter, total height), biomass of anatomical parts (blade, stipe, holdfast, reproductive tissue), and anchoring strength. In addition, biochemical traits—including carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and hydrogen (H) content—were measured from tissue samples analyzed in the analytical laboratory. These data support a trait-based modeling approach to macroalgal community structure and distribution, contributing to our understanding of functional diversity and ecosystem dynamics in temperate marine systems. Accompanying metadata include collection site, date, time, depth, location coordinates, and substrate type, providing context for environmental variation across samples.
SBC LTER: Ocean: Currents and Biogeochemistry: Moored CTD and ADCP data from Santa Barbara Harbor Mooring (SBH), ongoing since 1999
CTD (Hydrography) data were collected at Santa Barbara Harbor (site ID: SBH). Data have been interpolated to a 20 minute interval. The CTD data for this site are harvested from SCCOOS (http://sccoos.org/) and processed in Matlab.
SBC LTER: Ocean: Ocean hourly temperature at nearshore locations along the Northern Channel Islands in the Santa Barbara Channel, ongoing since 2000
Ocean in-situ temperature data were collected at nearshore sites along the Northern Channel Islands in the Santa Barbara Channel. The earliest temperature records started in April 2000. The temporal coverage varies at each site. At the start of the temperature data collection, the tidbit or hobo sensors were deployed on a mooring line at approximate 3 m, 9m, and 14 m nominal depths, and the sampling interval is 2 minutes. In 2013, the 3 m and 9 m temperature sensors were terminated and only 14 m sensors continued. In addition, the sampling interval changed to 15 minutes. This data package presents hourly average in-situ temperature data. The original raw data (2-min interval) between 2000-2010 were published on DataOne https://search.dataone.org/portals/PISCO. Data can be viewed and accessed by zooming in the Northern Channel Islands in the Santa Barbara Channel region and searching the keyword "physical oceanography moored temperature data". These datasets were funded and managed by The Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO). In 2013, the maintenance of the sensor deployment was transferred to NOAA National Marine Sanctuaries, and Santa Barbara Coastal LTER has been responsible for data download and processing.
