  • Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) data and Lowered-Acoustic-Doppler-Current-Profiler (LADCP) data from the 22 casts of the MomarSat 2022 Cruise. The CTD data from a Seabird SBE 25 were processed with Seasave V 7.26.7.121 software. Note that the conductivity/salinity data were NOT calibrated with bottles. Only basic CTD processing was done. The LADCP horizontal currents were measured with a combination of two 300 kHz RDI ADCPs, one uplooker and one downlooker. LADCP data were processed with the LDEO v. IX.12 software with a 10-m vertical resolution.

  • This data set includes CTD-O2 and LADCP data from the 46 stations occupied in Storfjorden and Storfjordrenna during the STEP cruise in July 2016 onboard R/V l'Atalante. Hydrographic data are provided in the form of Seabird ascii format (cnv), with two files per station (up and down). The data set also includes  underway S-ADCP data provided in netcdf format. Sensor metadata: CTD data were collected with a Seabird SBE 911+ probe. Dissolved oxygen data were collected with a Seabird SBE43 probe attached to the rosette. Additional data include fluorescence (Chelsea Aqua3) and transmission (WET labs C-Star).LADCP data were collected with a pair of  300 kHz Workhorse Sentinel from RD Instruments mounted on the rosette. Shipborne-ADCP data were collected with the  150 kHz Ocean Surveyor (RD Instruments)  mounted on the hull of R/V L'Atalante.

  • Current Meters in the frame of HERMES project

  • Data collected during the BENCHMARK cruise. The cruise was carried out between August 1-10, 2021 on Denmark Strait, in Icelandic and Greenlandic waters. The objectives of the cruise were to characterise the composition and distribution of epibenthic fauna in the Denmark Strait, with a particular focus on taxa considered indicators of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem, and to survey water mass properties and flow structure in the area.

  • ADCP data was collected at EMEC (Orkney, UK) full scale tidal site at Fall of Warness. No structures were present around the instrument at the time of the deployment. ADCP was mounted on a seabed frame. Resolution of data [s]: 1200; Sample period (s): 1200; Number of data records: 1005; Bin count: 59; Pings per Ens: 50; Time per Ping [s]: 24; 1st Bin [m]: 1.86; Bin size [m]: 0.75; Mode: Earth; Processing Software: IMPAQCT; QC process: SOP134; Data quality comments: No QC applied to the data.

  • ADCP measurements of sea currents along the profile at the entrance to the Gulf of Koper, located in the Gulf of Trieste, in November 2011

  • SADCP data processed (UHDAS/CODAS) by University of Hawaii (https://currents.soest.hawaii.edu/uhdas_home/)

  • Measurements of the currents were collected with the Ship-mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (S-ADCP) in the Indian Ocean and Mozambique Channel during the CLIM-EPARSES 1 cruise carried out in April 2019 onboard the R.V. Marion-Dufresne in the framework of the CLIM-EPARSES project (PI A.Tribollet/IRD-LOCEAN).  The project CLIM-EPARSES aims at evaluating the impact of global change (warming, acidification) over the last decades on the coral reef ecosystems in the Eparses Islands (Scattered Islands). This page is dedicated to the S-ADCP data recorded during the cruise.

  • Here we provide data from the Ross Ice Shelf ocean cavity.  Location  -  The HWD2 Camp was established in October of 2017 at 80o 39.497’S, 174o 27.678’E where the ice is moving seaward at around ~600 m a-1 and is sourced from the Transantarctic Mountains.  Profiling Instruments -  Profiling was primarily conducted with an RBR Concerto CTD (conductivity-temperature depth) profiling instrument, and this was cross-calibrated against irregular profiles with an RBR Duet (pressure and temperature only), a SBE37 MicroCat CTD as well as moored SBE37 MicroCat CTDs.  The RBR unit is small and has suitable sensor capability (temperature and conductivity accuracies of ±0.002°C and ±0.003 mS cm-1).  Its conductivity cell design is not prone to fouling by ice crystals, making it ideal for work in the sometimes crystal-laden borehole conditions.   We were inconsistent in how we mounted the CTD on its protective frame and this appeared to make small difference in the conductivity signal (resulting in an ~0.03 psu variation).  This was post-corrected based on the essentially invariant mooring data from the lower water column as well as SBE37 cross-calibration profile data. Because of the potential for sediment contamination of the sensors, the profiles were mostly conservative in their proximity to the sea floor. On several occasions, profiles were conducted all the way to the sea floor. The temperature and salinity are presented in EOS-80 in order to compare with available data.  Eighty three profiles are provided here (ctd_HWD2_*.dat). In addition, limited microstructure profiling was conducted to provide insight into some of the mixing details. The profiles were conducted by lowering the instrument to the ice base then commencing a sequence of three up-down “yo-yos” before returning to the surface and downloading. A data segment is included here (VMP_HWD2.dat). There were some challenges registering the vertical coordinate for the profiles.  The melting of the borehole generates a trapped pool of relatively fresh water.  The interface between this and the ocean should be near the base of the hole or a little higher – with seawater intrusion.  However, there were some instances where the interface was at a higher pressure (i.e. apparently in the open water column). The best explanation for this is that the water in the borehole is not at static equilibrium for some period after initial melting. We use 34.3 psu as a cut-off, in addition to a pressure criterion to identify the top of the useful oceanic profile.  It is also not inconceivable that water was being ejected from the hole, but it is unlikely that this would have impacted in the consistent observed pattern.  Instrumented Mooring - The mooring instruments at HWD2-A comprised 5 Nortek Aquadopp single point current meters in titanium housings reporting to the surface (30-minute interval, Table SI-Three) via an inductive modem to a Sound-9 data logger and Iridium transmitter. The current meter measurements were corrected to account for the 138o magnetic declination offset (i.e. the south magnetic pole is to the north-west of the field site).  Five files are provided here (HWD2_Init_rcm*.dat4).  Details in: Stevens C, Hulbe C, Brewer M, Stewart C, Robinson N, Ohneiser C and Jendersie J, 2020.
