log in | [ISIIS Environmental Data] - Environmental sensor data from an underwater imaging system (ISIIS-3) collected during R/V Langseth cruise MGL2207 July 20-28 2022 and R/V Sally Ride cruise SR2317 August 10-20 2023 in the Northern California Current (Collaborative Research: Plankton size spectra and trophic links in a dynamic ocean) | During July 20-28 2022 and August 10-20 2023 an underwater imager (In Situ Ichthyoplankton Imaging System 3, ISIIS-3) was deployed from the R/V Langseth and R/V Sally Ride, respectively. The ISIIS-3 deployments were carried out from these R/Vs in the northern California Current by a team affiliated with Oregon State University, the University of Oregon, and Portland State University.\n\nThe ISIIS-3 was equipped with two line scan cameras for collecting plankton imagery in addition to six environmental sensors.\n\nThis dataset contains the processed and quality controlled merged environmental data from the ISIIS imager on this cruise, consisting of temperature, conductivity, pressure, depth, salinity, fluorescence, oxygen, pH, photosynthetically active radiation, and chlorophyll a. Latitude, longitude, date, time, imager horizontal/vertical speeds, and altitude are also included in the dataset. Data were collected on six cross-shelf transects ranging geographically from the border of California and Oregon to southern Washington. Two transects, one following the Newport Hydrographic Line and the other near Gray's Harbor, Washington, were 70 nautical miles (~135 km) in length. The four others (near the Columbia River, Cape Meares, Heceta Bank, and the Rogue River) were 40 nautical miles (~73 km). ISIIS was towed continuously in an undulating motion (“tow-yos”) between 0-100m depth, or within 2-5m of the seafloor where the bottom depth was less than 100m. Data were streamed on to the ship in real time using a fiber optic oceanographic cable and written into millisecond time-stamped data files for each sensor. Sensor data files from ISIIS-3, along with latitude and longitude data from ship data streams, were merged using Python scripts into a final dataset based on the millisecond time stamps of the sensors and GPS streams.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nDateTime (Time, unitless)\nCruise_ID (unitless)\ntime (Iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nTemperature (degrees Celsius)\nConductivity (Siemens per meter (Siemens/m))\nPressure (decibars (dBar))\n...
