    • Surface and Oceanographic profile temperature, salinity and other measurements using CTD and thermosalinograph, taken from the PUERTO DESEADO in the Coastal South Atlantic, South Atlantic and other locations from 2005 to 2006 (NCEI Accession 0110317)

    Metadata Updated: May 1, 2025

    These data were collected as part of the scientific agenda of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and sponsored by the Secretary of Environment and Sustainable Development of Argentina (http://www.ambiente.gov.ar). The project Coastal Pollution Prevention and Marine Biodiversity Management (Project 28385-AR-UNDP-ARG/02/018l) also referred to as GEF Patagonia was partially funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), with additional funding from the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (CRN061 and 2076). The project goal was to determine the seasonal variability of physical-chemical properties of highly productive regions of the southwest South Atlantic continental shelf.

    The GEF Patagonia field experiments consisted of three oceanographic cruises carried out on board R/V ARA PUERTO DESEADO, in October 2005 (PD GEFPAT_1), and March (PD GEFPAT_2) and September 2006 (PD GEFPAT_3). In each cruise, hydrographic stations were occupied along cross-shelf sections spanning the shelf and extending to the onshore edge of the western boundary currents between 38° and 55°S. This submission reports the CTD and thermosalinograph data collected during the three GEF Patagonia cruises.
