Abstract:

Hydrographic data were collected during cruise EN586 using a CTD-rosette system aboard the R/V Endeavor. 54 conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) casts were made from the R/V Endeavor in the northern Gulf of Mexico in lease blocks GC185, GB480, GC574, GC600, GC699, GC767, OC26 and MC118 from 2016-07-26 to 2016-08-14 in conjunction with and support of ECOGIG water column research.
