CASES 0303-Northern Baffin Bay CTD data

The CTD data was obtained during LEG 01 of the 2003 CASES scientific cruise #0303. This Leg was carried out from September 8th 2003 to October 15th 2003 aboard the CCGS Amundsen. There were 37 CTD casts in Leg 1. One cast, associated to 1 oceanographic station, is located in the Northern Baffin Bay research area. The following parameters were measured: temperature, conductivity and pressure (with a Sea-Bird 911 probe), oxygen (Sea-Bird 43), fluorescence (Seapoint fluorometer), transmittance (Wetlabs C-Star transmissometer). There are two different versions of the CTD data file. A version containing processed data that was sent to the NIs and the original version containing all the data and metadata that were quality controlled. The first version of the data file is hosted on the ArcticNet FTP site and the second version is hosted by the Marine Environmental Data Service (MEDS) of Fisheries and Ocean Canada ans the Polar Data Catalogue.
