MCR LTER: Coral Reef: Ocean Currents and Biogeochemistry: salinity, temperature and current at CTD and ADCP mooring FOR01 from 2004 ongoing

Moored and bottom-mounted instrumentation (ADCP, CTD, thermistors, wave-tide meters) sampled year-round on the reef of Moorea Island, French Polynesia at LTER 1 fore reef site (FOR01). Sampling began in 2005. All data have been interpolated onto a 20 min grid. ADCP data are organized into 1-meter bins, measured as height from the bottom, to a maximum of 20 bins. All bins may not be filled, and although post-processing attempted to exclude data from bins 'above the surface', users need to exercise caution with the near-surface bins. CTD parameters include Pressure, Temperature, Conductivity, Salinity, and Density. The two moored CTD packages are located approximately 5 and 14 meters above the bottom and there are up to 5 additional temperature thermistors spaced vertically along the mooring line. Note that the upper CTD and temperature thermistor data were terminated in 2020, and the bottom CTD was terminated in February 2022. There are 2 bottom mounted thermistors in the vicinity of the mooring at 10 and 20 meter depth. A bottom-mounted wave-tide meter at 10-meter depth provides a measure of significant wave height and dominant wave period at a 2-hour sampling interval. Tide-related data may be calculated from bottom-mounted pressure sensor data.

Physical and biogeochemical oceanography data from Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD) rosette deployments during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE).

<p><strong>Dataset abstract</strong></p> <p>This data set contains measurements from various sensors mounted on the Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD) rosette that was deployed in the Southern Ocean during the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE). 63 CTD casts were carried out during three legs in the period 21st December 2016 to 16th March 2017, including one test cast and one failed cast, for which no data is available. Data include temperature, salinity, pressure, dissolved oxygen, oxygen saturation, chlorophyll-a concentration, backscatter, and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and reported are also the computed variables density, depth, and sound velocity. All data has been quality controlled and post-cruise calibrated, except for the oxygen data. Data is provided at 1 dbar pressure intervals for the up- and down-casts separately and as a merged bottle file when Niskin bottles were closed. This circumpolar data set provides insights into the circumpolar hydrography and biogeochemistry of the Southern Ocean during one austral summer season.</p> <p><strong>Dataset contents</strong></p> <p>For transparency, the raw files and files produced at the intermediate stages of data processing have been provided, in addition to the final processed files.</p> <p><em>Raw data files: </em></p> <ul> <li>ace_ctd_raw_files.zip - includes raw files direct from instrument and XMLCON configuration files</li> </ul> <p><em>Intermediate files: </em></p> <ul> <li>files output at each stage of the SeaBird processing</li> </ul> <p><em>Processed data files: </em></p> <ul> <li>ace_ctd_CTD20200406CURRSGCMR - one final set of files for the complete sensor data;</li> <li>ace_ctd_BOTTLE20200406CURRSGCMR_hy1.csv - a merged bottle file extracted from the sensor data is also provided</li> </ul> <p><em>Metadata:</em></p> <ul> <li>range of files describing the CTD deployments, sensors, water sampling; quality-checking and processing of the files.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Dataset license</strong></p> <p>This physical and biogeochemical oceanography dataset is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0) whose full text can be found at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</p> <p><strong>Change log</strong></p> <p><strong>v1.1</strong><br> Quick summary of issues addressed in CTD DOI Update<br> - Resolved discrepancies between upcast and downcast MLD estimates<br> - &lsquo;Bad&rsquo; datapoints in file dACE201601_002_ct1.csv which were not flagged with &lsquo;4&rsquo; Bad measurement<br> - CTDFLUOR1, CTDFLUOR1Q, CTDFLUOR2, CTDFLUOR2Q &lsquo;dark&rsquo; correction was not applied consistently in first processing and should have been applied to all fluorescence variables<br> - CTDFLUOR1Q, CTDFLUOR2Q quenching correction needed to be recalculated and reapplied after update to MLD and dark correction<br> - Limit the number of decimal places for fluorescence, PAR and backscattering variables according to the instrument sensitivity limits (which is 4 decimal places except for backscattering which is 6)<br> - Changed file names described in data_file_header.txt</p> <p>Additional details on &lsquo;Issues&rsquo; and resolutions<br> Mixed layer depth estimates<br> - Large discrepancy in MLD estimates from upcast and downcasts at the same station was due to differences in the &lsquo;reference&rsquo; depth i.e. depth other than 10 m was used when there were no datapoints at 10 m.<br> - Note: influence of time between casts was also checked and was not the driver of the discrepancies.<br> - Issue was resolved by setting the MLD for any cast where the reference depth was not 10 m to NaN.</p> <p>Bad data flagging<br> - 22 &lsquo;bad&rsquo; datapoints for variables salinity, density, temperature and sound at the end of the downcast file dACE201601_002_ct1 were missed during the visual inspection of the first CTD processing and hence were not flagged as bad.<br> - The bad datapoints are now flagged as &lsquo;4&rsquo; bad measurement</p> <p>Fluorescence<br> - In the first processing, dark correction was only applied to the files where quenching correction was needed, and only to the quenched corrected fluorescence variable, but should have been applied to all fluorescence variables in all files. This has been corrected<br> - In the first processing, the upcast MLD was used as the MLD estimate in quenching correction for both the upcast and downcast file. This has been changed so that the MLD from the same cast is used i.e. downcast estimate for the downcast file and upcast estimate for the upcasts file, unless the MLD estimate is NaN (because the reference depth was not 10 m), in that case the either the downcast or upcast estimate is used - whichever exists.</p> <p>Decimal places<br> - The number of decimal places for the fluorescence, PAR and backscattering variables far exceeded the sensitivity limits of the respective sensors - for the fluorescence and backscattering variables this was due to the additional calculations and corrections applied.

SBC LTER: Ocean: Ocean Currents and Biogeochemistry: Nearshore water profiles (monthly CTD and chemistry), ongoing since 2000

This data package contains water chemistry measurements taken monthly at these reefs in the nearshore areas of the Santa Barbra Channel, CA, USA: Arroyo Quemado, Bullito, Naples, Arroyo Burro, Mohawk and Carpinteria. Measurements include standard CTD parameters, nutrients, pigments, particulate CN, total dissolved N and P, stable isotopes of C and N (not all parameters are measured at all stations). Sampling began in November 2000. Some stations are sampled only occasionally. During the first 2 years, CTD data were collected with a SBE19 Seacat Profiler and water samples with a pump. Starting in February 2003, a SBE19-Plus with a rosette sampler was used. There are 3 tables in this dataset. Water chemistry and profiles from "registered stations" (see geographic coverage) are in 2 tables with "registered" in their name. CTD profiles are often collected ad hoc, or as "stations of opportunity". These have been collected in a third table as "non-registered". The station codes for these may be reused, and are not recorded in metadata (but can be found in data).

SBC LTER: CTD profiles from UNOLS cruises in the Santa Barbara Channel: LTER14, 2005-10-07 to 2005-10-14

The data described here were collected on LTER14 which took place from 2005-10-07 to 2005-10-14 on the RV Pt. Sur. Cruises have been conducted in the Santa Barbara Channel, California, USA, 3-4 times per year since March, 2001 and are approximately 7 days in length. There are 4 basic types of measurements: Profiles at 25 grid stations unique to the SBCLTER and 7 cross-channel stations (also occupied by the Plumes and Blooms project). Measurements include primary production, basic CTD parameters (Seabird 911-plus), inorganic nutrients, phytoplankton pigments, particulate organic carbon and nitrogen, natural abundances of N and C isotopes, and occasionally biogenic and lithogenic silica, optics, and/or dissolved organic carbon. Two-dimensional sections of oceanic constituents are recorded in the top 120m with an undulating towed CTD scanning system (Scanfish) on both along shore and cross-channel transects. Underway measurements: fluorometry, salinity and temperature are collected at a depth of 3m with a flow-through system which also includes continuous climate measurements. Underway acoustic dopler current profiles were collected using a RDInstruments Workhorse 300kHz and RDInstruments Ocean Surveyor 75kHz ADCP. On Cruise LTER14, additional water and CTD samples were collected at the request of the Carson group for viral analysis, to document area off Mohawk Reef (also for the Carlson group) and sample the eddy near line "C". On this cruise, additional stations and are identified as CRAIG001-CRAIG002, CC01-CC010, E001-E005, respectively
