Fortune Bay: Pool's Cove - POOLC

POOLC (47.679933 N, 55.43001667 W): is a water temperature and pressure gauge located in Pool's Cove, Fortune Bay. The station is equipped with an HydroMet OTT Pressure Level Sensor (PLS) measuring water pressure and temperature. The sensor is connected to a SUTRON Satlink2-V2 which collect 1 min average values (from a 1 Hz internal sampling) logged every 10 min and transmitted via an Omni-directional GOES antenna every hour. The station is installed on a wharf and the sensor is moored at about 1.5 m depth from mean sea level. This station was installed as part of a bay-scale monitoring program that occurred from May 2015 to May 2017 and that aimed at understanding the dominant ocean dynamics of Fortune Bay. It has been maintained ever since and visited on a yearly basis (approximately) though it suffered from instrument failure from late 2018 to late 2020. Details on the original program can be found at https://essd.copernicus.org/articles/12/1877/2020/essd-12-1877-2020.html

CMAR - Chedabucto Bay

This dataset is collected using a 3 metre tall, 1 metre in diameter meteorological/oceanographic buoy from Xeos Technologies Inc., of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. The buoy is deployed in Chedabucto Bay, Nova Scotia. It measures wave data (Maximum Wave Height, Significant Wave Height, Peak Wave Period, Mean Wave Direction, and Mean Wave Spread) using a Brizo wave sensor manufactured by Xeos, sea temperature using a T Node sensor, and meteorological data (Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Air Pressure, Humidity, Air Temperature, Rain Intensity, and Hail Intensity) using Vaisala sensors. The data is streamed to CIOOS every 20 minutes. The data will be used to support science-based decision making and advancement of Nova Scotia's coastal resources.

MUN Glider Deployment: Unit 473, Trinity Bay, 2016-08-16

Over the past 15 years, Memorial University has been involved in various ocean glider activities, with deployments focused primarily on the Newfoundland Shelf and the Labrador Sea. For example, four deployments with glider data are in the Labrador Sea. Partnerships with Fisheries and Oceans Canada and Ocean Gliders Canada have also resulted in deployments of Memorial's gliders in the Pacific. The data contain 14,663 mission km, 620 deployment days and 25,108 individual glider profiles.

L1 NetCDF files for every deployment archived on Memorial University's Glider Data server are publicly available for scientific research. Deployments vary in duration and region. All files were processed with the SOCIB glider toolbox (Troupin et al., 2015), modified by Nicolai von Oppeln-Bronikowski, 2019 for MUN glider deployments.

This glider deployment occurred between 16 Aug 2016 and 27 Aug 2016 over the Trinity bay area, Canada.

Guysborough County Water Quality Data

The Centre for Marine Applied Research (CMAR) provides high resolution ocean data from around the coast of Nova Scotia through their Coastal Monitoring Program. Through the Water Quality Branch of the program, CMAR collects temperature, dissolved oxygen, and salinity data using sensors deployed on stationary moorings. A typical mooring consists of a line anchored to the sea floor and suspended by a sub-surface buoy, with sensors attached at various depths. Alternatively, sensors may be attached to structures including buoys, docks, or aquaculture equipment. Sensors are deployed for several months, and data are measured every 1 minute to 1 hour. Station locations, summary reports, and data collection methods are available on the CMAR website (https://cmar.ca/coastal-monitoring-program/). Datasets and reports may be revised pending ongoing data collection and analyses. Automated Quality Control tests were applied to the data to identify outlying and unexpected observations. The results of these tests are summarized in the “qc_flag” columns of the dataset. Observations flagged as “Pass” passed all tests, while observations flagged as “Fail” failed at least one test and should be excluded from most analyses. “Suspect/Of Interest” flags highlight unusual events or poor quality data, and “Not Evaluated” flags indicate at least one test was not applied to the observation. Flags should be used as a guide only, and users are responsible for evaluating the data quality prior to use. For technical details on the Quality Control tests, visit the CMAR Data Governance website (https://dempsey-cmar.github.io/cmp-data-governance/pages/cmp_about.html). Other data quality considerations:  -	Through calibration-validation procedures, CMAR has discovered that the VR2AR temperature sensors typically record 0.5 – 1 °C lower than other temperature sensors. This is not corrected for or flagged in the datasets but may be in the future. -	Sensor drift is not flagged in the datasets. -	The sensor_depth_at_low_tide_m is an estimate and should be compared to sensor_depth_measured_m when possible. Note the mooring can get “knocked down” by currents or sink from biofouling. Large discrepancies between the estimated depth and the minimum recorded depth are flagged in the column depth_crosscheck_flag. The Coastal Monitoring Program Water Quality data is organized by county. These datasets are very large, typically exceeding the number of rows that can be viewed in Excel. CMAR recommends filtering the data to the waterbody, station, depth, quality control flag, and/or time period of interest before exporting. Take care when exporting data filtered on quality control columns, because the whole row will be filtered (i.e., all other variables measured at that timestamp will also be excluded).  If you have accessed any Coastal Monitoring Program data, CMAR would appreciate your feedback: https://forms.gle/AyD7Vi3BpKGe6ueYA.

Newfoundland and Labrador climate index

The Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) climate index aims to describe the environmental conditions on the NL shelf and in the Northwest Atlantic as a whole. It consists of annual normalized anomalies of 10 subindices with equal contribution: Winter North Atlantic Oscillation, air temperature, sea ice, icebergs, sea surface temperature, vertically-averaged temperature and salinity at Station~27, cold intermediate layer (CIL) core temperature at Station~27, CIL area on 3 hydrographic sections and bottom temperature on the NL shelf. This index runs from 1951 to 2019 and will be updated annually. Data associated with Cyr, F. and Galbraith, P. S.: A climate index for the Newfoundland and Labrador shelf, Earth Syst. Sci.
