Physical, chemical, and biological data collected in Mobile Bay, Alabama in 1989-05 to 1999-12 (NCEI Accession 0116496)

This dataset contains physical, chemical, and biological data collected during ten years of near-monthly shipboard surveys carried out in Mobile Bay between May 1989 and December 1999. Station locations ranged from the Mobile River delta to the mouth of Mobile Bay, from Bon Secour to the eastern part of Mississippi Sound, and outside Mobile Bay in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Hydrographic profiles and water samples were collected at each station.
