Water temperature, salinity, and oxygen taken by CTD and water sampling from NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown, cruise RB-20-06, in the Northwestern Tropical Atlantic from 2020-10-11 to 2020-10-25 (NCEI Accession 0229563)

This dataset contains water temperature, salinity, and oxygen profiles taken by CTD and water sampling. Cruise RB-20-06 by NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown in 2020 had the objective to service moored platforms for the NTAS and MOVE projects (Northwest Tropical Atlantic Station and Meridional Overturning Variability Experiment). To calibrate and validate the mooring data, CTD casts with salinity water samples were collected; these data are reported here. The CTD sensor data have been quality-controlled and adjusted using the water sample data. The raw CTD data are available as separate files. Data are in NetCDF.
