Measurements were collected from the core monthly BATS cruises and the near-biweekly (depending on ship availability) BATS Bloom cruises during February through April. The sample parameter list has been mostly consistent for the full time-series record and includes: salinity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved inorganic carbon, alkalinity, nutrients (nitrate + nitrite, nitrite, phosphate, silicate), particulate organics (carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous), particulate silicate, total organic carbon and nitrogen, total dissolved phosphorus, bacterial enumeration, and flow cytometry counts of picoplankton. The HPLC derived phytoplankton pigment data which are collected synoptically with many of the above parameters are reported in a separate dataset.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\ntime (Iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nBottle_ID (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nVessel (unitless)\nCruise_ID (unitless)\nCruise_type (unitless)\nCruise_num (unitless)\nCast_num (unitless)\nBottle_num (unitless)\nQF_bottle (unitless)\ndepth (m)\nQF1_Depth (unitless)\nTemp (degrees Celsius (°C))\nQF2_Temp (unitless)\nCTD_Salinity (dimensionless)\nQF3_CTD_Sal (unitless)\n...

log in | [BVAL bottle data (BATS Validation cruises)] - Discrete bottle samples collected during BATS Validation (BVAL) cruises from April 1991 through June 2023 (Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study) | Data presented here are discrete bottle samples for BATS validation (BVAL) Cruise # 1 (April 1991) through BVAL cruise # 60 (June 2023). Following the first several years of the BATS project it was deemed necessary by the JGOFS steering committee and BATS PIs to conduct validation cruises in the vicinity of the nominal BATS site to better understand the mesoscale and larger scale variability of the region. In particular, a focus of the BVAL cruises was to assess the spatial scale representation of the BATS and Hydrostation ‘S' programs. Initial focus of the BVAL cruises was to investigate mesoscale variability and meridional gradients of the local region. Later, cruises focused on specific mesoscale eddies (e.g., McGillicuddy et al., 1998; McGillicuddy et al., 1999) and effects of tropical cyclones through the local region. In the year 2000 it was deemed more important to document the larger scale changes in the North Atlantic Subtropical gyre so BVAL cruises established a transect line from ~ 35N to 19N (Bermuda to Puerto Rico) very similar to the WOCE A22 repeat hydrography line (Johnson et al., 2020). These annual Bermuda to Puerto Rico transects have been run since 2000 and target stations at every one degree of latitude and typically have been conducted in September/October of each year to capture maximal heat content in the upper ocean. However, since this timeframe coincides with high tropical cyclone activity the cruises were reluctantly (as of 2022) moved to begin in June/July of each year for safety and operational reasons. In the pentad prior to 2022 every BVAL cruise was significantly impacted by multiple tropical cyclones. Parameters presented are the same as provided in the standard BATS bottle files.
