Temperature, salinity, light and fluorescence (CTD) measurements from the Kongsfjorden (Svalbard) marine observatory (mooring) October 2012-September 2013

As part of the "KROP - Kongsfjorden Rijpfjorden Observatory Programme" UiT The Arctic University of Norway and The Scottish Association for Marine Science maintain marine observatories (moorings) in two high-Arctic fjords in Svalbard: Kongsfjorden and Rijpfjorden. The observatories consists of an array of CTDs, temperature loggers, ADCPs and a sediment trap, in addition to various other instruments or installations that change from year to year. This dataset contains the CTD, PAR and fluorescence data from Kongsfjorden 2012-2013. Fluorescence data is given as raw voltage only, due to calibration and fouling issues. It is meant as an indication of the timing of the phytoplankton bloom, not as absolute chlorophyll a concentration. No post-recovery processing of light data (to correct for fouling) has been performed. The setup on for this deployment had several differences from other years. This is the last deployment using Vemco miniloggers for temperature (later: SBE56). An additional SBE16+ was placed above the top sphere on a rope with an additional float (26 m). There was also an additional sediment trap at 56 m. The standard setup of an upward and downward looking ADCP above and below the 112 m sediment trap was established and continued ever since.
