LTER Georgia Coastal Ecosystems - September 2003 bin-averaged CTD profiles for the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems Sapelo River transect
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Three hydrographic surveys were performed on September 27, 2003, along a transect from Sapelo Sound up the Sapelo River to Eulonia, Georgia (Sapelo River Transect, GCE-SP).
Description
Vertical CTD profiles were collected at 3-4km intervals from 0km to 36km during low and high 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-SP -- Sapelo River, Georgia, USA.

Sapelo River transect used for GCE quarterly hydrographic monitoring surveys. Nominal profiling stations are defined every 3-4km from 0km to 36km (relative to station 0km at the line of demarcation), based on an estimated Thalweg line running up the main river channel.
