Cruise: Gradients 1, KOK1606

Project Name: Simons Foundation, SCOPE, Gradients NPSG

Dataset description:

The Satlantic (now Seabird) HyperPro is an in-situ free-fall profiling unit designed to measure the apparent optical properties of the ocean with concurrent measurements of temperature, salinity, chlorophyll and dissolved matter fluorescence, and optical backscattering (a proxy for total particle load). The unit is equipped with one up-looking and one down-looking hyperspectral (350-800nm) radiometer with 10 ± 0.3 nm resolution, a WET Labs ECO-Puck Triplet, and temperature, pressure, and conductivity sensors. It also incorporates a ship-mounted surface (air) hyperspectral radiometer. This dataset is derived from the ship-mounted surface (air) hyperspectral radiometer.  These photosynthetically active radiation - PAR(0+) - data are reported from the duration of the cruise, except when hyperpro ocean profiles were conducted.
