CTD data from the N. E. Atlantic 31N to 46N, July 1982 Discovery cruise 130

Abstract

Lists and graphs of CTD data obtained aboard RRS Discovery during July 1982 are presented. A series of 14 stations were occupied between approximate 31 deg N 24 deg W and 46 deg N 14 deg W in support of sound ranging trials. A further 20 stations were occupied in the vicinity of Discovery Gap, a channel for deep flow between the Madeira and Iberian basins near 37 deg 30 N 15 deg 30 W. All CTD data were reconciled with reversing thermometer measurements, and salinity and oxygen samples. Root mean square differences for pressure, temperature, salinity and oxygen were 7 dB, .012 deg C, .007 PSU and 0.3 ml/l in the depth interval 0 to 2,000 dB and 6 dB, .005 deg C, .003 PSU and .16 ml/l for depths 2,000 to 5,600 dB.
