Water temperature, salinity and other data collected from SeaGlider 574 (SG574) in South Atlantic Ocean from 2012-09-20 to 2013-02-15 (NCEI Accession 0131762)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: September 26, 2026 at 08:40 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 06, 2019 at 12:00 AM
This dataset contains data in NetCDF format from Seaglider 574 (SG574). The South Africa Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) - Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observatory (SOCCO) Southern Ocean Seasonal Cycle Experiment (SOSCEx) was planned around five cruises to the Subantarctic Zone (SAZ) between the austral winter of 2012 and the late summer of 2013. Two autonomous SeaGliders (SG573 and SG574) were deployed south of Gough Island in the South-East Atlantic Ocean at 42.4S, 9.9W and 43.0S, 11.0W, respectively. Their deployment occurred in the central SAZ region of the Southern Ocean. The gliders were deployed on 20 September 2012 and 25 September 2012, respectively and both were retrieved on 15 February 2013 resulting in continuous sampling for 148 and 143 days (or 5.5 months) per glider.
