GliderSG678
StatusCompleted
SummaryUnderwater glider data gathered by the Caribbean Regional Association for Coastal Ocean Observing (CARICOOS) and the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). This dataset includes temperature and salinity profiles up to 1000 m depth with
mean vertical resolution of 1.5 m and mean spatial resolution of 2 km per profile, and is part of a network of underwater
gliders operating in the Caribbean Sea and the southwest Tropical North Atlantic since 2014. This glider network is aimed at
providing upper ocean data to improve our knowledge on the ocean response to Tropical Cyclone (TC) force winds and for TC
intensification studies and forecasts. All the data collected are transmitted in full resolution and in near real-time (maximum
delay of 30 min) to the Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Glider Data Assembly Center for archival and distribution and
to the Global Telecommunication System (GTS) for assimilation into weather and climate forecast models. The data are also
archived at NOAA / National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)
