CTD Data from the cruise BE-1415 on May 2014. The cruise will be sampling to document any residual hydrocarbons from the BP MC252 well eruption and provide time series hydrographic, water chemistry, sediment, and plankton data as a baseline and to document the physical and biological seasonal dynamics for the offshore shelf of the Florida Panhandle Bight at the head of DeSoto Canyon.

This cruise will collect samples and observations in the DEEP-C benthic array of sites. Leg I will depart St Petersburg 08:00 22 Sept 2012, change personnel in Panama City at 08:00 on 30 Sept. Leg 2 will return to Panama City at 08:00 7 October. Equipment requested from FIO: CTD-Rosette, 12kHz depth profiling display, 50x50cm box-core (back-up). Equipment requested from USF: 8-barrel multicore and core-processing equipment (Hollander), USBL system (Locker), chest freezer. Equipment provided by FSU: MILET photo platform. Leg 1 will prioritize photo survey of all sites with selected multicore collections at the shallow (< 1000m sites). Leg 2 will prioritize multicore and water sample collections with no scheduled seafloor imaging. This dataset contains the data from the CTD casts for this cruise.

Conductivity Temperature and Depth (CTD) measurements were collected aboard R/V Weatherbird II to determine physical oceanographic parameters of the water column, and in some cases used to help guide sample collection as part of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill sampling effort. Temperature, conductivity/salinity, depth, dissolved oxygen, and fluorometry data were collected onboard the Weatherbird II, Cruise 01. The final product is a series of NetCDF files containing every CTD cast that has been processed and quality checked.

This dataset contains CTD, water quality and particle and zooplankton sample elemental (total C and N, C/N ratio) and isotopic (delta 13C, delta 15N) data collected during R/V Endeavor cruise EN496 in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2011-07-03 to 2011-07-26. Particle and zooplankton samples were collected during cruise EN496 using a CTD-rosette and a MOCNESS. The objectives were to collect water column and benthic samples in the vicinity of the Mississippi River Plume, as well as, at/near active seeps. Elemental and isotopic data were collected at 18 stations, while CTD profiles were done at 51 locations. Elemental and isotopic data includes the delta 13C and 15N, total Nitrogen and Carbon and the C/N ratio. Hydrographic data was collected using a Sea-Bird SBE-9 and the data includes temperature, salinity, oxygen concentration, sound velocity, beam attenuation and transmission, sea level, Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), fluorescence and surface irradiance.

A Minerals Management Service (MMS) program entitled Survey of Deepwater Currents in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico, awarded to Evans-Hamilton, Inc. This data set includes physical oceanographic data from CTD and ADCP moorings deployed in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico from January 19, 2005 to January 28, 2006. The data are in ASCII forms subjected to quality control and quality assurance procedures.

Physical and profile oceanographic data were collected aboard the WEATHERBIRD II in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-05-22 to 2010-05-27 in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consisted of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include unknown data types. The instruments used to collect these data included CTD along with other physical sampling devices. More specific information about each dataset is located in their individual metadata records. The CTD data underwent preliminary quality assurance and control procedures at the National Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC). Cruise level information consisting of data management documents, cruise reports and plans, videos and pictures, and other miscellaneous documentation were gathered by the data managers.

Chemical and physical oceanographic profile data were collected aboard the American Diver in the Gulf of Mexico on 2010-08-04 in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consists of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include CDOM fluorescence, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, hydrostatic pressure, salinity, sound velocity, temperature and water density. The instruments used to collect these data were CTD, fluorometer and oxygen meter. These data have undergone quality assurance and control procedures to validate their scientific integrity at the National Coastal Data Development Center.

This dataset includes conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) data from casts performed in the northern Gulf of Mexico during R/V Atlantis cruise (AT18-02) from November 26 to December 02, 2010. The cruise departed from Galveston, Texas and ended in Gulfport, Mississippi.

Chemical and physical oceanographic profile data were collected aboard the Rachel Bordelon in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-09-04 to 2010-09-13 in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consists of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include CDOM fluorescence, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, hydrostatic pressure, salinity, sound velocity, temperature and water density. The instruments used to collect these data were CTD, fluorometer and oxygen meter. These data have undergone quality assurance and control procedures to validate their scientific integrity at the National Coastal Data Development Center.
