de Gamboa’: March 6 to 23, April 29 to May 14, and September 14 to 22.
We sampled 13 stations during the March cruise, 18 stations during
May, and 10 stations during September (Table 1). At each station, CTD
casts were performed with a 24-bottle Niskin rosette equipped with sensors
for temperature and conductivity, turbidity, oxygen and fluorescence
(SBE 911 plus CTD). Calibration of the conductivity and oxygen sensors
was performed with discrete salinity and oxygen samples.
