Abstract
This dataset includes CTD and environmental data for nine stations collected onboard R/V Weatherbird II cruise WB-0717 in the Gulf of Mexico from 2017-07-19 to 2017-07-30. The dataset includes 16 profiles/casts of temperature, salinity, conductivity, chlorophyll-a and colored dissolved organic matter fluorescence, turbidity, oxygen saturation, sound velocity, altimetry and Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR). R/V Weatherbird II cruise WB-0717 was led by chief scientist Dr. Steve Murawski. The cruise objectives were to evaluate the extent of fish disease and to characterize the distribution and fate of oiled sediment at sites on the continental shelf and slope of the northern Gulf of Mexico.
Purpose
The goal of this cruise is to evaluate the extent of fish disease and to characterize the distribution and fate of oiled sediment at sites on the continental shelf and slope of the northern Gulf of Mexico.
