ru29-20191010T1932 Delayed Mode Science Profiles
type: Dataset
description: The Challenger Glider Mission is a re-creation of the first global scientific ocean survey conducted by the HMS Challenger from 1872-1876. The goals of the mission are to establish a collaborative international network of autonomous underwater glider ports, to assess global ocean model predictive skill while contributing real-time profile data for assimilation in ocean forecast models by operational centers worldwide, and to crowd source student-based ocean research and discovery. Glider is providing temperature, conductivity, salinity, density and current profile observations. The current profiles are logged via external pd0 files and are not available in this real-time dataset. RU29 is flying a transect across the Anegada Passage and box pattern throughout the surrounding island regions to monitor heat transport between the Caribbean Sea and the Tropical North Atlantic. This region includes the US Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, and Anguilla, areas commonly impacted by tropical cyclones. This deployment is the continuation of the prior USVI ru29 deployment. High-resolution delayed-mode/recovered dataset.
