Salinity, temperature, pressure collected by profiling float MRV 11066 deployed from the icebreaker research vessel Laura Bassi in Ross Gyre from 2020-01-11 to 2020-02-16 (NCEI Accession 0240501)

Metadata Updated: March 17, 2023

This dataset contains salinity, temperature, pressure collected by Marine Robotics Vehicles (MRV) ALTO autonomous profiling float 11066 deployed from the icebreaker research vessel Laura Bassi in Ross Gyre from 2020-01-11 to 2020-02-16. This float was also programmed to avoid ice but this feature was not necessary over the short period of sampling reported here. The nominal accuracy of the MRV SBE CTD measurements is 0.004 mS/cm, 0.002 C, and 0.25 m, respectively. The float operated for about one month and returned 49 profiles of temperature and salinity roughly every 12 hours with vertical resolution of 1 m. Fortuitously, the float traversed through a warm-core eddy that is described in detail in the referenced paper. Data are in TXT format.
