Abstract:
The dataset consists of processed CTD data collected along three transects across Kaldfjorden, Troms, between September 2016 and September 2018. CTD profiles were taken from small boat using a handheld SAIV a/s CTD sensor, lowered by hand, and pulled up by winch or by hand, or from a research vessel using a Seabird Electronics SBE911plus CTD package. Information on which sensor was used is included in the dataset. Calibration of the conductivity sensors was done against salinity samples collected throughout the sampling period, as well as by sensor intercalibration. The SBE sensors were factory calibrated annually. Raw temperature and salinity profiles were processed using Matlab to control for and remove outliers, calibrate salinity, convert in situ temperature to potential temperature, bin data to regular 2db bins. Positions of the stations are nominal positions.
