ADCP, CTD, underway, water chemistry, and mahi-mahi satellite tagging data and tracks from the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico from 2016-09-29 to 2018-03-26 (NCEI Accession 0241708)

This data package contains ADCP, CTD casts, near-surface data from ship’s continuous flow-through system and meteorological conditions, water chemistry data, and mahi-mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) tagging data derived from a research and fishing vessels. Mahi-mahi were tagged over a period of 2 years in the Florida Straits and the Gulf of Mexico including day trips aboard Miss Britt and Triple Threat (2016-09-29 to 2018-03-26) and as part of a research cruise on board the R/V F.G. Walton Smith cruise WS17177 (2017-06-26 to 2017-06-28). Satellite tagging data and tracks were derived from mahi-mahi tagged with Wildlife Computers pop-up satellite archival tags (PSATs) programmed to collect light, pressure (depth), temperature, and acceleration for up to 96-days and then transmitted via the Argos satellite network. Oceanographic data were derived from CTD profiles conducted once-daily and underway ADCP and near surface water (environmental and meteorological) data collected for the duration of the cruise. The dataset also includes water chemistry data (temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, ammonia, and PAHs) derived from two identical 5,000L onboard recovery tanks holding mahi-mahi in control seawater for up to 16 hours. Tagging data includes all the tagging information such as catch and releases location, fish size and condition, and associated tag number. All the raw PSATs data for each tagged Mahi-Mahi is included in the dataset. PSATs data includes temperatures, depths, light levels, and acceleration, as well as fish tracks.
