- High-resolution observations of the ocean upper layer south of Cape St. Vincent, the western northern margin of the Gulf of CádizPublication . Rautenbach, Sarah A.; Mendes da Silva de Sousa, Carlos A; Carapuço, Mafalda; Relvas, PauloThis article presents an Eulerian physical and biogeochemical dataset from the Iberian Margin Cape St. Vincent Ocean observatory (IbMa-CSV), a facility of the European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory European Research Infrastructure Consortium (EMSO-ERIC), located 10 nautical miles south of Cape St. Vincent (Portugal), the southwest tip of the Iberian Peninsula and western limit of the northern margin of the Gulf of Cádiz (GoC). The observatory was installed on the shelf break, and the data time series spans 4 months for most of the variables. The upper 150 m were sampled intensively with a wave-powered vertical profiler at an average rate of 4.5 profiles per hour recording at 2 Hz when ascending at an approximate velocity of 0.2 m s−1 and 10 Hz when descending at a variable velocity. The vertical resolution was always higher than 0.2 m. Measured channels were conductivity, temperature, pressure, chlorophyll a, dissolved O2 concentration, and turbidity. Derived channels are sea pressure, depth, salinity, speed of sound, specific conductivity, dissolved O2 saturation, density anomaly, spiciness, and Brunt–Väisälä frequency. The acquired dataset includes the flow velocity and direction along the water column, taken from an upward-looking 300 kHz acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) recorded every hour for 3 m depth bins extending the same depth range of the vertical profiler. A standard quality-control scheme was applied to the dataset. The dataset is preserved for multiple use and is accessible in the Sea Open Scientific Data Publication (SEANOE) repository via the following address: https://doi.org/10.17882/94769 (Rautenbach et al., 2022).
