CTD stations | Quantity: activity duration in days = 7 Description: Sampling was carried out along 10 stations along the northwest shelf of the Hebrides. Problems were experienced with the equipment due to bad weather. |
Subsurface temperature and salinity measurements | Description: Temperature sensors failed due to leaking casings, so recordings were not noted.
No. of samples not specified. |
