Temperature, salinity, light and fluorescence (CTD) measurements from the Kongsfjorden (Svalbard) marine observatory (mooring) September 2011-September 2012
As part of the "KROP - Kongsfjorden Rijpfjorden Observatory Programme" UiT The Arctic University of Norway and The Scottish Association for Marine Science maintain marine observatories (moorings) in two high-Arctic fjords in Svalbard: Kongsfjorden and Rijpfjorden. The observatories consists of an array of CTDs, temperature loggers, ADCPs and a sediment trap, in addition to various other instruments or installations that change from year to year. This dataset contains the CTD, PAR and fluorescence data from Kongsfjorden 2011-2012. Fluorescence data is given as raw voltage only, due to calibration and fouling issues. It is meant as an indication of the timing of the phytoplankton bloom, not as absolute chlorophyll a concentration. No post-recovery processing of light data (to correct for fouling) has been performed. The target position for the deployment was slightly missed, the deployment depth was much deeper than usual (top SBE16+ at 64 m). The setup contained only one upward looking ADCP, no downward looking. There was no sediment trap present either. Below the top SBE16+ some nets containing blue muscles were mounted. Data of those has not been published.
As part of the KROP - Kongsfjorden Rijpfjorden Observatory Programme UiT The Arctic University of Norway and The Scottish Association for Marine Science maintain a marine observatory in the high-Arctic location Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, since 2002. The observatory consists of an array of CTDs, temperature loggers, ADCPs and a sediment trap, in addition to various other instruments or installations that change from year to year. This dataset contains the temperature data of the Vemco temperature logger that was located at 214m depth in the deployment year 2011-2012. The two most shallow temperature loggers (s/n 1066 and 1068) failed.

This dataset contains the temperature, salinity, density data of a Seabird SBE16p CTD with E(PAR) light and chlorophyll fluorescence auxiliary sensors which was located at 64m depth in the deployment year 2011-2012. The fluorescence sensor data is given as raw voltage due to fouling and calibration issues. It is only suitable to detect fluorescence peaks, not to compute actual chlorophyll concentrations. The equation to compute chlorophyll concentration is given in the variable attributes, use with care. E(PAR) data is not corrected for drift due to fouling during the deployment.
As part of the KROP - Kongsfjorden Rijpfjorden Observatory Programme, UiT The Arctic University of Norway and The Scottish Association for Marine Science maintain a marine obervatory in the high-Arctic location Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, since 2002. The observatory consists of an array of CTDs, temperature loggers, ADCPs and a sediment trap, in addition to various other instruments or installations that change from year to year. This dataset contains the temperature and salinity data of the Seabird SBE37 MicroCAT that was located at 54m depth in the deployment year 2011-2012.
