LTER Georgia Coastal Ecosystems - June 2003 bin-averaged CTD profiles for the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Intracoastal Waterway transect
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Two hydrographic surveys were performed from June 18 to June 19, 2003, along the Intracoastal Waterway between the Altamaha River south of Wolf Isand and Sapelo Sound (Intracoastal Waterway Transect, GCE-IC).
Description
Vertical CTD profiles were collected at various intervals from 0km to 23km along the transect during various tidal regimes. Conductivity, temperature, pressure and optical backscatter were measured, and depth, salinity and sigma-t were calculated for each profile.
Data values collected on the upcast were deleted, and the remaining data were averaged within 0.5m depth bins and interpolated to produce a smooth profile for contouring. This data set was collected as part of the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems LTER quarterly hydrographic monitoring program. GCE Study Site GCE-IC -- Intracoastal Waterway, Georgia, USA.

Intracoastal Waterway transect used for GCE quarterly hydrographic monitoring surveys. Nominal profiling stations are defined at varying distances from -28km to 32km (South to North, relative to station 0km at the sourthernmost tip of Wolf Island near the mouth of the Altamaha River), based on an estimated Thalweg line running up the main channel.
