TPOS-2020 Saildrone Pilot Study
This file contains the real time data from the Saildrone core sensors for the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) TPOS 2018 Mission (Mission 2) to the central equatorial Pacific (0, 140W). These data have not been Quality Control (QC)�d. This was the second of three missions funded by NOAA Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR)/CPO/GOMO and NOAA/OMAO as a pilot study for the Tropical Pacific Observing System (TPOS)-2020 project. The PIs were Dr. Meghan Cronin (NOAA PMEL), Dr. Dongxiao Zhang (UW Joint Institue for the Study of Atmoshere and Ocean (JISAO)), Dr. Adrienne Sutton (NOAA PMEL), and Mr. Christian Meinig (NOAA PMEL). Mr. Nathan Anderson contributed to the metadata creation. PMEL TPOS 2018 Mission (aka Mission 2) had four Saildrones: SD1005 and SD1006 were Gen 4 drones, and SD1029 and SD1030 were Gen 5 drones equipped with a larger wing designed for equatorial work. The drones were each equipped with full atmospheric and ocean core sensor suite, and an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) (not included in this file). SD1029 & SD1030 also carried shortwave and longwave radiation (included in core set) and an ASVCO2 carbon flux and pH system; these carbon data are served in a separate file. SD1029 had 3 strap-on SBE56 temperature sensors (at 0.35m, 1.16m, and 1.72m) to study the near-surface stratification. For the Gen5 drones, the core Conductivity, Temperature, Depth (CTD) was an RBR located in the flowthrough tunnel in the keel. The carbon system also had an independent prawler CTD that is higher quality than the RBR. The vehicles were deployed out of Honolulu, HI on October 3, 2018. After sailing near a PMEL Carbon mooring in Kaneohe Bay, HI, the drones proceeded to the Tropical Atmosphere/Ocean (TAO) mooring at 9N, 140W. Three drones completed a circuit around the mooring, and then began their transit south towards the equator. Two drones made it to the equator and sailed near the TAO moorings at 0, 140W. Navigation issues caused the mission to be aborted early (mid-December 2018), before further science tasks could be completed. Three Saildrones were recovered in Honolulu on 01-27-19. SD1030 was recovered in HI later in the spring of 2019.
