Description

This version of this dataset is considered deprecated/obsolete. Please use the new dataset at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/826798

Methods & Sampling

Data are collected from a CTD Sea-Bird MicroCAT 37 deployed at a floating dock at ~2-3 m water depth located at the University of Washington Friday Harbor Laboratories, Friday Harbor, WA (Lat = 48.5461, Long = -123.007). This dataset contains values of salinity and water temperature.

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing:
- concatenated separate data files (.txt) into one;
- added ISO 8601 date/time format;
- added latitude and longitude as columns; values originally provided in dataset metadata.

Instruments

CTD Sea-Bird MicroCAT 37

Supplied Name: Sea-Bird SBE37

Supplied Description:

Sea-Bird SBE37 (temperature and salinity)

Instrument Type

Generic Name: CTD Sea-Bird MicroCAT 37

Acronym: CTD MicroCAT 37

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/350/

Generic Description:

The Sea-Bird MicroCAT CTD unit is a high-accuracy conductivity and temperature recorder based on the Sea-Bird SBE 37 MicroCAT series of products. It can be configured with optional pressure sensor, internal batteries, memory, built-in Inductive Modem, integral Pump, and/or SBE-43 Integrated Dissolved Oxygen sensor. Constructed of titanium and other non-corroding materials for long life with minimal maintenance, the MicroCAT is designed for long duration on moorings.

In a typical mooring, a modem module housed in the buoy communicates with underwater instruments and is interfaced to a computer or data logger via serial port. The computer or data logger is programmed to poll each instrument on the mooring for its data, and send the data to a telemetry transmitter (satellite link, cell phone, RF modem, etc.). The MicroCAT saves data in memory for upload after recovery, providing a data backup if real-time telemetry is interrupted.
