Description
This dataset is a collection of profiles collected in September 2015 in the Canada Basin with a Shallow Water Integrated Mapping System (SWIMS) towed behind a ship, while sampling twice over a "butterfly" pattern at about 4 knots. The high-resolution CTD measurements exhibit the presence of staircases in the stratification, with a clear transition between a watermass with and a watermass without staircases. Support for data collection was provided by the following grants: NSF Grants PLR 14-56705 and PLR-1303791 NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Grant DGE-1650112 ONR Grant N000141612450 Research Data Curation Program, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/rdcp) Boury, Samuel; Supekar, Rohit; Fine, Elizabeth C.; Musgrave, Ruth; Mickett, John B.; Voet, Gunnar; Odier, Philippe; Peacock, T.; MacKinnon, Jennifer A.; Alford, Matthew H.
