Description

This dataset is a collection of profiles collected in September 2015 in the Canada Basin with a Shallow Water Integrated Mapping System (SWIMS) towed behind a ship, while sampling twice over a "butterfly" pattern at about 4 knots. The high-resolution CTD measurements exhibit the presence of staircases in the stratification, with a clear transition between a watermass with and a watermass without staircases.
