Description

CTD data from G5 WaveGlider (surface only)

Data are described in the following manuscript:
Seegers, B.N., Teel, E.N., Kudela, R.M., Caron, D.A., Jones, B.H. Submitted to Estuaries, Coasts, Shelf Science (October 2014). Glider and remote sensing perspective of the upper layer response to an extended shallow coastal diversion of municipal wastewater effluent.

Methods & Sampling

Dataset acquisition description

Sampling and Analytical Methodology:
Data collected from an underway mapping system using a YSI 6600v2 sonde (CTD) and Turner Designs PhytoFlash variable fluorescence meter. Data merged with GPS locations and binned to 1 minute intervals. The PhytoFlash data were blank-corrected with 0.2 µm filtered seawater but were not corrected for ambient irradiance.

Instruments

Fluorometer

Supplied Name: Turner Designs PhytoFlash variable fluorescence meter

Supplied Description:

Data collected from an underway mapping system using a YSI 6600v2 sonde (CTD) and Turner Designs PhytoFlash variable fluorescence meter. Data merged with GPS locations and binned to 1 minute intervals. The PhytoFlash data were blank-corrected with 0.2 µm filtered seawater but were not corrected for ambient irradiance.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Fluorometer

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/113/

Generic Description:

A fluorometer or fluorimeter is a device used to measure parameters of fluorescence: its intensity and wavelength distribution of emission spectrum after excitation by a certain spectrum of light. The instrument is designed to measure the amount of stimulated electromagnetic radiation produced by pulses of electromagnetic radiation emitted into a water sample or in situ.

YSI Sonde 6-Series

Supplied Name: YSI 6600v2 sonde (CTD)

Supplied Description:

Instrument Type

Generic Name: YSI Sonde 6-Series

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0737/

Generic Description:

YSI 6-Series water quality sondes and sensors are instruments for environmental monitoring and long-term deployments. YSI datasondes accept multiple water quality sensors (i.e., they are multiparameter sondes). Sondes can measure temperature, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, depth, turbidity, and other water quality parameters. The 6-Series includes several models. More from YSI.
