Description
Three consecutive campaigns in the Sea of Oman consisting of two simultaneous glider deployments.
Gliders were equipped with T, S, O2, Chl and Optical backscatter. One glider was equipped with a SUNA nitrate sensor and a PAR sensor. The other glider was equipped with an ADCP and a microstructure turbulence sensor.
The dataset was collected as part of the Swedish Formas project "Improving harmful algal bloom predictions in the Middle East: how submesoscale physics disrupt food and water security.".
The archive file contains all of the raw data provided by the SeaExplorer in the manufacturers' standard formats.
