CLIVAR MOde Water Dynamics Experiment (CLIMODE)
CTD and Hydrographic Data

 CLIMODE Home U.S. CLIVAR

Principal investigators:
Lynne D. Talley , Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD (CTD, basic hydrographic data)
M. Susan Lozier, Duke University (nutrients)

CTD and hydrographic data are collected on each cruise in CLIMODE. The major data sets are from the winter cruises (CLIMODE 2, 4) (2006 and 2007). Reduced data sets are collected on the mooring servicing cruises (CLIMODE 1, 3, 5) (Fall 2005, 2006, 2007).
