    • Water temperature, salinity, and other data collected from R/V Thomas G. Thompson in Pacific Ocean near San Diego, California from 2016-02-13 to 2016-02-19 (NCEI Accession 0161328)

    Metadata Updated: November 1, 2023

    Beginning in 2011 the University National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) began a program of Chief Scientist training cruises to introduce prospective early career scientists to the process of planning, acquiring, effectively utilizing, and reporting on time at sea for multi-disciplinary research and education. Cruise TN338 of R/V Thomas G. Thompson to the California Borderland Basins area was the seventh of such cruises and collected water column data using a SeaBird CTD/Rosette. Presented here are the temperature, salinity, and bottle data from those CTD casts.

    The training cruise occurred between February 12 and 19 in 2016. Chief scientist trainees self-organized into a water-column group studying the upwelling surrounding Cherry Bank, another group study along a section roughly normal to the coast and a benthic group. Collected here are the water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll fluorescence, transmissometry, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphate, and silicate data.
