The University of Alaska is responsible for this data which was collected aboard R/V Alpha Helix cruise HX59, R/V Amak cruise AM04, and R/V Redoubt cruises RT31 - RT41, between 12/1/82 - 03/24/84, by Dr. George Hunt of the University of California, Irvine, and Dr. Burrell of the Institute of Marine Science. There were a total of 120 stations in the Bering Sea area, and a total of 448 stations in the Boca de Quadra area. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) format. The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity, and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t), and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals. A text record is available for comments.

Current components, physical, and other data were collected by moored current meters and CTD casts in the Gulf of Alaska from the ALPHA HELIX and other platforms. Data were collected by the University of Alaska - Fairbanks; Institute of Marine Science (UAK/IMS) from 28 April 1988 to 29 June 1988. Data has been processed by NODC to the standard NODC F015-Current Meter Data (Components) and the F022-CTD High Resolutions formats. This F015 format is used for time series measurements of ocean currents. These data are obtained from current meter moorings and represent Eulerian method of current measurement, i.e., the meters are deployed at a fixed point and measure flow past a sensor. Position, bottom depth, sensor depth, and meter characteristics are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of east-west (u) and north-south (v) current vector components at specified date and time. Current direction is defined as the direction toward which the water is flowing with positive directions east and north and negative directions west and south. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at 10-15 minute time intervals. Water temperature, pressure, and conductivity or salinity may also be reported.

Currents and CTD data were collected using moored current meter casts in Boca de Quadra and Smeaton Bay, Alaska, from August 5, 1980 to August 1, 1981. Data were submitted by University Of Alaska - Fairbanks; Institute of Marine Science as part of the BORAX project. Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard Current Meter Data (F015) format.
