MUN Glider Deployment: Unit 334, Gulf of St. Lawrence, 2021-09-06
Over the past 15 years, Memorial University has been involved in various ocean glider activities, with deployments focused primarily on the Newfoundland Shelf and the Labrador Sea. For example, four deployments with glider data are in the Labrador Sea. Partnerships with Fisheries and Oceans Canada and Ocean Gliders Canada have also resulted in deployments of Memorial's gliders in the Pacific. The data contain 14,663 mission km, 620 deployment days and 25,108 individual glider profiles.
L1 NetCDF files for every deployment archived on Memorial University's Glider Data server are publicly available for scientific research. Deployments vary in duration and region. All files were processed with the SOCIB glider toolbox (Troupin et al., 2015), modified by Nicolai von Oppeln-Bronikowski, 2019 for MUN glider deployments.
This glider deployment occurred between 05 Sep 2021 and 18 Nov 2021 over the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada.
