Abstract:

This dataset includes lander data collected in the northern Gulf of Mexico from September to December, 2015. Oxygen data was collected using optode sensors inside and out of a chimney to look at the total oxygen consumption (TOU) of the soil. Water current (speed and direction), temperature, turbidity, conductivity, pressure, data was also collected.

Purpose:

The purpose was to calculate the total oxygen consumption of the soil and observe other parameters within the site.
