The Mediterranean Sea is the geographic scope for temperature profile and nutrient data collected via bottle and CTD casts aboard the GARCIA DEL CID vessel. Data were submitted by Dr. Hernan Garcia with support from the Fluxes Across Narrow Shelves (FANS) project. Collection occurred from 02 November 1996 to 08 November 1996.
Use Cases
- Analyze vertical temperature structure based on CTD cast profiles
- Study nutrient concentrations and distributions based on bottle sample data
- Model water column dynamics in narrow shelf regions based on the FANS project focus
Strengths
- Data collection covers a specific, defined time range from 02 to 08 November 1996
- Data were submitted by a named principal investigator, Dr. Hernan Garcia
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Last updated 1996-11-08 00:00:00; freshness should be verified
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
