Hydrographic Data Along the California Coast from Pigeon Point to Cape San Martin

Abstract

This data report presents hydrographic (CTD) and Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data collected during a pair of cruises one during May and June the other during July of 1996. The study area encompasses a region from Pigeon Point south to Cape San Martin (35 deg 53'N) extending from the coast to approximately 90 km offshore. A total of 163 CTD casts (61 during the first cruise) were completed. The CTD data are presented primarily in tabular form for selected pressures. ADCP data are shown as a set of horizontal contour plots. Some T/S plots are also presented.
