Title of datasetGibraltar Fixed Time series mooring line data (GIFT-mooring, 2012-2017)
Narrative summary of datasetMooring line deployed in the Espartel Sill located in the Strait of Gibraltar consisting of an uplooking Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) (Teledyne RD Instruments, Inc.), a currentmeter Nortek Aquadopp (Nortek AS), a CT (Conductivity Temperature) SBE 37 probe (Sea-Bird Electronics, Inc.), and SAMI-pH and SAMI-CO2 Submersible Autonomous Moored Instruments (Sunburst Sensors, LLC.). CT, SAMI-pH and SAMI-CO2 were placed around 13 m above the sea bottom (360 m depth). The main objective is to monitor the Mediterrranean Outflow Water carbon parameters variability before it leaves the Mediterranean Basin to the Atlantic Ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar.
