| Description | |
| Summary | This dataset comprises a variety of physical oceanographic measurements collected under the CarTRidge project between 25th February and 26th March 2025. These data were collected on RRS James Cook cruise JC275 in the South Atlantic ocean. The data included are from: 53 Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) and Lowered Acoustic Doppler Current profiles (LADCP), 2 Wirewalker moorings, and 3 glider deployments. These data will be used to link internal tidal waves to patterns of carbon export. The data were funded under Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Discovery grant "Enhanced carbon export driven by internal tides over the mid-Atlantic ridge (CarTRidge)" (grant number NE/X013758/1). |
