Ocean Biogeochemistry from Gliders as part of the Gulf of Maine North Atlantic Time Series

Metadata Updated: March 28, 2024

This dataset contains ocean biogeochemistry data from two Slocum gliders along the Gulf of Maine North Atlantic Time Series (GNATS) transect. The transect runs approximately east-west, with only a very minor change in latitude. The gliders are deployed on the western end of the transect, travel along the transect line to the eastern end, turn around and travel back along the transect to the western end, before being recovered. Each file contains data from one deployment (a glider “mission”), and thus contains both an eastbound and a westbound measurement of each variable. A full mission takes approximately 20 – 30 days. The data are gridded by longitude (0.01° intervals) and depth (1 m intervals). For more details on dataset preparation, see the Original Publication Citation and Data Processing Workflow below.
