| Description | This dataset provides the Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth measurements carried by a Slocum glider. The measurements were collected during the 2019-2020 SWOT prelaunch field campaign conducted near the SWOT crossover location in the California Currents, 300km west of Monterey, California, USA. It has 883 CTD profiles with glider diving depths varying between 500 m and 1000 m. Details can be found in the user guide and the journal reference given in the documentation section. |
