This dataset includes measurements of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), sea surface salinity, sea surface temperature and other parameters from the OceansAlaska Shellfish Hatchery in Ketchikan, Alaska from 2016-08-29 to 2019-05-16. The OceansAlaska Shellfish Hatchery in Ketchikan, is a floating barge that has been a site for high-resolution measurement of surface seawater CO2 content since August 2016. Measurements of in situ temperature, salinity, and CO2 partial pressure are made near-continuously from a seawater sample line with an intake depth of 4.3 m. The effort to collect these data is a collaboration between OceansAlaska, the UAF Ocean Acidification Research Center, Oregon State University, and the Hakai Institute with support from the Alaska Ocean Observing System and the Tula Foundation. This data contribution consists of measurements made between August 29, 2016 and May 16, 2019.

Physical oceanographic data were collected from NOAA Ship RAINIER west of Sitka Island, Alaska, from 18 May 2008 to 18 June 2008. Data were collected from CTD casts and parameters include temperature and salinity profiles. Data are self documenting and are in plain ASCII text. The Office of Protected Resources (OPR) is a headquarter program office of NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries Service, or NMFS), under the U.S. Department of Commerce, with responsibility for protecting marine mammals and endangered marine life. (from Office of Protected Resource web page, http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/pr/, which was last accessed on 28 October 2008) These data were collected for project OPR-0112-RA-08.

Salinity data were collected using moored current meter casts in the North Pacific Ocean, Bering Sea, and Gulf of Alaska from October 3, 1984 to May 1, 1988. Data were submitted by Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) as part of the Arctic Polynya EXperiment (APEX) and Fisheries-Oceanography Cooperative Investigation (FOCI) project. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard F015- Current Meter Data and F017- Pressure Gauge Data formats. The 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. A text record is available for optional comments. The F017 format contains time series measurements of seawater pressure from anchored or bottom-mounted sensors. Measurements of variations at depth of seawater pressure provide information on tidal and storm flows, ocean circulation, and other phenomena that cause changes in sea surface elevation or slope and that can be detected from their pressure signature. Position, bottom depth, and gauge depth are reported for each station. The data record comprises values of total pressure at specified date and time. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering and are typically reported at time intervals of 10-15 minutes. Seawater temperature may also be reported. Comments may be reported in a text record.

This dataset contains temperature, salinity, pressure, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), optical backscatterance (OBS - turbidity), dissolved oxygen, and fluorescence (proxy for chlorophyll-a concentration, an index of primary productivity) profiles, collected from 22 stations that span the length of Glacier Bay proper, from just outside the mouth of the Bay to the heads of both the East and West Arms. Generally mid-channel and equidistant, stations capture a range of depths from shallow sills to deep basins, and are located along the gradient from tidewater glaciers and turbid outwash streams to source waters at Icy Strait. Seven core stations are sampled on nine cruises per year to allow description of intra-annual variation, and all 22 stations are occupied during two of these cruises (July and winter) to allow description of inter-annual variation. This sampling design also allows us to detect long-term seasonal and annual trends, and to describe the current year in a historical context. We measure standard oceanographic parameters throughout the water column: temperature, salinity, pressure, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), optical backscatterance (OBS turbidity), dissolved oxygen, and fluorescence (proxy for chlorophyll-a concentration, an index of primary productivity). The scope and methods are fully explained in the formal monitoring protocol. The monitoring program was initiated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 1993 and jointly operated each year by USGS and Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve through 2008. In 2009, NPS took on full responsibility for the program. That year, the Southeast Alaska Network initiated a comprehensive update of the program, following recommendations from a 2006 program review, peer-reviewed analyses of the Glacier Bay data, and input from staff at USGS, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and several universities. The update resulted in retention of most stations, the addition of one new station, and a temporal shift of the sampling effort away from a quarterly cruise schedule. SEAN also rebuilt the data processing and management system to meet NPS I&M standards and to ensure that all products -from raw and validated field data through the protocol and synthesis reports - are fully validated and web accessible at https://irma.nps.gov/DataStore/Reference/Profile/2168864. Data are in CSV format.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (XBT) (C116) format. The C116/C118 format contains temperature-depth profile data obtained using expendable bathythermograph (XBT) instruments. Cruise information, position, date and time were reported for each observation. The data record was comprised of pairs of temperature-depth values. Unlike the MBT Data File, in which temperature values were recorded at uniform 5 m intervals, the XBT data files contained temperature values at non-uniform depths. These depths were recorded at the minimum number of points ("inflection points") required to accurately define the temperature curve. Standard XBTs can obtain profiles to depths of either 450 or 760 m. With special instruments, measurements can be obtained to 1830 m. Prior to July 1994, XBT data were routinely processed to one of these standard types. XBT data are now processed and loaded directly in to the NODC Ocean Profile Data Base (OPDB). Historic data from these two data types were loaded into the OPDB.

Measurements of conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD), in addition to dissolved oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorescence, were collected in the Wainwright Inlet, the mouth of the Kuk River, and in the nearshore region off Wainwright, Alaska, in August 2009 with a Seabird SBE 19. Post-survey calculations of salinity were made from the conductivity measurements.
