Fisheries and Oceans Canada Nearshore Sea Surface Sensor Data for Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth in the Pacific Region

Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) in collaboration with research partners installed conductivity and temperature sensors in the Pacific coastal region. There are 4 sensors in the north coast, and 9 in the south coast region - 4 on the west coast of Vancouver Island (WCVI), and 5 in the northern half of Vancouver Island. Additional sensors are planned to be installed and included in this dataset, and future sensors will have depth in addition to the other variables measured.
