Abstract:

This dataset contains CTD, ADCP, and navigational data collected aboard the R/V Pelican during cruise PE17-23 in the Gulf of Mexico from 2017-06-08 to 2017-06-17. These data include current speed – east/west u-component and north/south v-component, temperature, salinity, conductivity, oxygen raw, latitude and longitude. The ADCP data represent the raw data set. CTD data included in this dataset are also available under GRIIDC UDI R4.x261.231:0006 (doi:10.7266/N7MW2FHT).

Purpose:

ADCP data was collected by the R/V Pelican as part of the suite of underway data collected for navigation and deployment purposes.

Data Parameters and Units:

Current speed – east/west u-component (m/s) and north/south v-component (m/s), temperature (degrees C), salinity (psu), conductivity (S/m), oxygen raw (volts), latitude and longitude (degrees minutes).
