©2026 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.This dataset contains CTD profiles of temperature, oxygen, salinity, fluorescence, beam attenuation and transmission, PAR, and pH collected in the Salish Sea on R/V Rachel Carson cruises RC0078, RC0104, and RC0138 during 2022, 2023 and 2025. The data was collected to select sampling depths for metatranscriptomic and metabolomic analysis of microbial communities based on the physicochemical and biological properties of the water column.

CTD data were collected from the near surface to 5-10 m off the seafloor in the Salish Sea on R/V Rachel Carson cruises RC0078, RC0104, and RC0138 during 2022, 2023 and 2025. They were collected using a Sea-Bird SBE9 CTD profiler equipped with a pH sensor (SBE 18), oxygen sensor (SBE 43), fluorometer (WETLabs ECO-AFL), transmissometer (WETLabs C-Star), PAR sensor (LI-COR Biospherical PAR Sensor), and 12 Niskin bottles.
