Abstract:

Three conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) casts made from the R/V Pelican in the northern Gulf of Mexico (lease block GC600) in conjunction with and support of ongoing mooring and deep sea lander experiments. Samples were collected from 2012-09-03 - 2012-09-05 during on cruise PE13-09. Note that only data files only contain sound velocity, but all files are included to export additional parameters.

Purpose:

These CTD casts were made to determine the hydrography in the area of deployed mooring and deep-sea lander experiments.
