Abstract:

Six conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) casts made from the R/V Pelican (cruise PE15-08) in the northern Gulf of Mexico in lease block(s) GC600 and MC118 in conjunction with and support of ongoing mooring and deep sea lander experiments from September 18-22, 2014. Samples were collected 2014-09-20 - 2014-09-24.

Purpose:

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