Physical profile data from towed (undulating) CTD casts from R/V POINT SUR on the continental shelf off Oregon and Washington in the Northeast Pacific Ocean in support of River Influences on Shelf Ecosystems (RISE) from 2004-07-11 to 2006-06-11 (NCEI Accession 0049910)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: October 26, 2026 at 07:40 PM | Dataset Last Updated: October 15, 2021 at 12:00 AM
These CTD data were obtained during the NSF-sponsored RISE project during July 2004, June 2005, and May-June 2006, on the continental shelf off Oregon and Washington, USA, in the Northeast Pacific Ocean. The data were collected by towing a CTD attached to the towed Triaxus platform. The Triaxus was normally set to undulate between the ocean surface and a depth of 40 to 60m. Transects were obtained, ranging in length from a few km to over 60km.
