Sound speed, water temperature, salinity and conductivity data from CTD taken from research vessels Sea Scout and C-Wolf in coastal waters of Texas, approaches to Galveston from 2017-09-14 to 2018-03-13 (NCEI Accession 0174501)

Metadata Updated: May 1, 2025

This dataset contains CTD measurements of sound speed, water temperature, salinity and conductivity in coastal waters of Texas, Gulf of Mexico, approaches to Galveston from 2017-09-14 to 2018-03-13. Casts were conducted at least twice a day on board R/V Sea Scout and at least once a day on board R/V C-Wolf. Dual CTD casts were obtained at least once a week to ensure a proper performance of sensors. Data from vessel Sea Scout and vessel CWolf contain salinity and conductivity, respectively. Data were collected under contract with the NOAA. Data are in cnv format.
