Dataset identification

Title of datasetFIGURE-CARING 2022 EUROFLEETS+ cruise - CTD and bottle data
Narrative summary of datasetCTD and bottle data collected during the EUROFLEETS+ FIGURE-CARING projects with R/V Atlantic Explorer in July 2022 in the Gulf Stream. FIGURE project aims to study the fine scales shaping nitrogen fixation in the Gulf Stream where CARING project studies the Carbon irrigation to the North-Atlantic by the Gulf stream. The sampling strategy comprises CTD and discrete sampling of the water column between surface and 2000 dbar as a maximum depth along two transects. CTD and bottle data have been processed by LOPS/Ifremer
Summary of processing methodologyCTD data were calibrated with Seabird post-processing software and the LOPS calibration suite developed by LOPS/IFREMER in Matlab language (CADHYAC)
