ctd: A CTD profile in Halifax Harbour

Description

This is a CTD profile measured in Halifax Harbour in 2003, based on ctdRaw, but trimmed to just the downcast with ctdTrim, using indices inferred by inspection of the results from plotScan.

Usage

data(ctd)

Details

This station was sampled by students enrolled in the Dan Kelley's Physical Oceanography class at Dalhousie University. The data were acquired near the centre of the Bedford Basin of the Halifax Harbour, during an October 2003 field trip of Dalhousie University's Oceanography 4120/5120 class. The original .cnv data file had temperature in the IPTS-68 scale, but this was converted to the more modern scale using T90fromT68.

The full profile (not trimmed to the downcast) is available as ctdRaw.
