Abstract:

Data collected by shipboard flow-through system and other onboard instrumentation. This includes: water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll, beam attenuation, GPS, wind speed and direction, surface PAR, air temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity, and echosounder. Data were collected in the Mississippi Bight from R/V Pelican, November 1-7, 2015.
