ArcticNet/Malina 0902b - Beaufort Sea CTD Data

The CTD data was obtained during the 2009 Malina scientific cruise #0902 as part of the ArcticNet program. The data were collected from July 31 to August 24, 2009, aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 167 casts associated to 52 stations, located in the Beaufort Sea research area.

The following parameters were measured: temperature, conductivity and pressure (with a Sea-Bird SBE-9plus), dissolved oxygen (Sea-Bird SBE-43), fluorescence (Seapoint chlorophyll fluorometer), CDOM (Haardt backscat fluorometer FL(RT)D), nitrate concentration (Satlantic MBARI-ISUS 5T), transmittance (Wetlabs C-Star transmissometer), currents (RDI LADCP), turbidity (UVP 5), light intensity (PAR; Biospherical Instruments QCP2300) and surface light intensity (sPAR; Biospherical Instruments QCP2200). Quality control procedures were applied to the data. Data are available on the Polar Data Catalogue and at the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) of Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
