Physical and other data from current meters, bottle casts, CTD casts, meteorological sensors, and other instruments from the GYRE as part of the Texas-Louisiana Shelf Circulation and Transport Processes Study (LATEX PART A) from 1992-04-09 to 1994-10-02 (NCEI Accession 9500056)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 07:56 AM | Dataset Last Updated: March 19, 2013 at 12:00 AM
Physical and other data were collected from current meters, bottle casts, CTD casts, meteorological sensors, and other instruments from the GYRE from 09 April 1992 to 02 October 1994. Data were collected by Texas A&M University (TAMU) as part of the Texas-Louisiana Shelf Circulation and Transport Processes Study (LATEX PART A). Current meter parameters include East/West velocity component (U), North/South velocity component, temperature, conductivity, and salinity. CTD parameters include pressure, conductivity, temperature, oxygen, oxygen temperature, % transmission, fluorescence, irradiance (PAR), backscatterance, altitude, water depth, sigma-theta, salinity, potential temperature, sound velocity, and acceleration. Meteorological sensor parameters include air pressure, sea temperature, air temperature, buoyhead, wind speed, and wind direction. Bottle data is not included in accession.
