Underwater PAR and UVR downwelling irradiance profiles in the Southeastern Beaufort Sea in 2004

This dataset consists of vertical profiles of underwater downwelling irradiances at several UVR (305, 313, 320, 340 and 380nm) and PAR wavelengths, from June to August 2004. Vertical light profiles were performed using a PUV-511 underwater radiometer (Biospherical Instruments) that provides a measure of cosine-corrected downwelling irradiance in the UVR and PAR. Irradiances were corrected by the dark values and normalized to the ambient conditions at the beginning of the profile, using ambient values given by a GUV-510 surface radiometer (Biospherical Instruments) mounted on the top of the wheelhouse of the CCGS Amundsen.

Purpose

These data were collected in order to monitor the optical characteristics of the water column. These data will contribute to our understanding of the effects of climate change associated with light irradiance and phytoplankton physiology.
