Seaglider 658 profile data from a deployment from April to August 2022 on the Northeast US shelf deployed from the R/V Armstrong cruise AR66-A
Abstract:
These profile data were collected by a Seaglider (serial number 658), carrying a Seabird CT0344 to measure temperature, salinity, and pressure; Aanderaa 4831IW to measure oxygen; and Wetlabs BBFL2IRB to measure optical properties of seawater (CDOM and chlorophyll fluorescence, and scattering). It profiled 561 times, typically between the surface and 1000 m (or within 10 m of the seafloor, if shallower) on the Northeast US continental shelf. The Seaglider was deployed at 2022-04-09 from 39.847459 °N, 70.731300W and last collected profiling data 2022-08-29 at 40.96°N and 70.87°W. The purpose of the deployment was to collect water column information beneath two Saildrone uncrewed surface vehicles also collecting data in the region. The project was funded by NSF-OCE, with co-PIs Alison Gray (UW), Jaime Palter and Lora Van Uffelen (URI).
