This dataset contains the trajectory profile data from glider ru39 from one seasonal deployment (2024-02-15 to 2024-03-24). This deployment (glider trajectory ru39-20240215T1646) was part of a project to conduct a seasonal baseline survey with a pair of gliders deployed in each season over two years with a full complement of available sensors to simultaneously map oceanographic and ecological variables.

Drilling of the exploratory boreholes and installation of the monitoring well was completed by Anderson Environmental Contracting, LLC (AEC), using sonic drilling methods. An Aspect geologist was on-Site to observe the drilling and characterize the samples under the direction of a Washington State-licensed hydrogeologist (LHG). Aspect logged the borehole in general accordance with ASTM International (ASTM) Method D2488, Standard Practice for Description and Identification of Soils (Visual-Manual Procedure).

This study estimated the abundance of microplastics (i.e., plastics measuring less than 5mm) on marine turtle nesting beaches during 2018-08-04 to 2020-01-24. Samples were collected with metallic trowel. Sand samples were collected from 209 sites spanning six oceans and 39 countries by a global network of marine turtle scientists. Microplastics were extracted through stacked sieves, visually identified, and a sub-sample verified via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.

This dataset contains oceanographic images and videos collected by various iPhone and Android devices, a GoPro 10, Canon EOS 5D, and a Nikonos V camera; and videos collected by divers using a GoPro Hero 10 camera. The project resulted in the collection of baseline data to support monitoring and management of historic sites; developed and strengthened relationships among federal, state, and tribal heritage partners and other stakeholders; and enhanced our understanding about the first interactions between Indigenous communities and settlers in the Pacific Northwest.

This dataset consists of surface underway ocean measurements of fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2), salinity, and sea surface temperature collected during the R/V Thomas G. Thompson transit cruise TN367 (EXPOCODE 325020190520) in the Atlantic Ocean from Cape Town, SA to Woods Hole, MA from 2019-05-20 to 2019-06-09. These measurements were collected with support from NOAA's Climate Program Office (CPO).

Environmental data including: precipitation, air, and water temperatures were collected from a fisheries field crew at Whiskey Lake in Southcentral Alaska during each summer from 2018-2020. Air temperatures were collected from a shady site on Bourbon Mist Island using a thermometer and surface water temperatures were taken in the shallows on the east side of the island also via thermometer. All temperatures were recorded in degrees Celsius at 5:00 pm each day.

This dataset includes sea surface underway measurements of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), water temperature, salinity and atmospheric pressure obtained during the R/V Maria S. Merian cruise MSM89, EUREC4A_OA (EXPOCODE 06M220200117) in the Western Tropical North Atlantic Ocean from 2020-01-17 to 2020-02-20.

This dataset includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, pH on total scale, temperature, salinity, oxygen and nutrients collected during the R/V Keifu Maru II cruise KS12-09 (EXPOCODE 49UF20121210) in the North Pacific Ocean from 2012-12-10 to 2012-12-21.

This dataset includes discrete profile measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), total alkalinity, pH on total scale, temperature, salinity, oxygen and nutrients collected during the R/V Ryofu Maru III cruise RF13-03 (EXPOCODE 49UP20130409) in the North Pacific Ocean from 2013-04-09 to 2013-04-20.

This dataset contains the surface discrete measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, pH on total scale and nutrients during the R/V F. G. Walton Smith cruise WS18120 (EXPOCODE 33WA20180430) in the west coast of Florida, Gulf of Mexico from 2018-04-30 to 2018-05-03. Increasing amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide from human industrial activities are causing changes in global ocean carbon chemistry resulting in a reduction in pH, a process termed ocean acidification.
