Underway Seawater Sampling Aboard NOAA ship Oscar Dyson in 2008, Forage Distribution and Ocean Conditions (B62) https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/245.B62-009 Summary This data set contains measurements of oceanographic conditions from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) ship Oscar Dyson cruises in the Bering Sea during the 2008-2010 study period. These measurements include water temperature, salinity and chlorophyll fluorescence in water pumped from the bow seawater intake at 2.5-meter depth. The maps show temperature, salinity, nitrate concentration, chlorophyll-a concentration, and oxygen saturation along the ship track. Data were collected from February 2008 through September 2008.
