CTD casts (temperature, salinity, oxygen, fluorescence, turbidity, SUNA Nitrate), and nutrient and salinity bottle samples collected from Norseman II in Bering Strait and Southern Chukchi Sea from 2023-07-05 to 2023-07-14 (NCEI Accession 0289671)

Metadata Updated: February 1, 2026

This is an archive of CTD and Niskin bottle data from the 2023 Bering Strait mooring cruise.

The cruise was funded by the NSF-Arctic Observing Network grants: - PLR-1758565 (PIs: Woodgate and Peralta-Ferriz). - PLR-2153942 (PIs: Woodgate and Peralta-Ferriz).

The data are from a ~ 11 day cruise - on the US vessel Norseman II - from 4th-14th July 2023 - sailing from and to Nome, Alaska, USA - to the Bering Strait and southern Chukchi Sea. The cruise was also to service oceanographic moorings in the strait and those data are archived separately.

This is an archive of both hydrographic and bottle data. A total of 78 casts were taken and are included in this archive. Water samples were taken for salinity (6) and nutrients (194) from the CTD rosette and these data are included in this archive. A separate pumping system was used to take trace metal (and accompanying nutrient) samples during this cruise (lead: Laramie Jensen). These data are archived separately.

Stations were taken in US waters near mooring locations and on sections in the Bering Strait and southern Chukchi Sea. See cruise report, accompanying event log and data headers for map, station locations, calibration, and processing details.

The data are taken using an SBE9-11plus system, recording - pressure - temperature (dual system) - conductivity (dual system) - oxygen (dual system) - fluorescence - turbidity connected also to an - SUNA nitrate sensor, recording both internally and with the CTD data.

Bottle samples returned to the University of Washington (UW) for analysis post cruise.
