CTD profiles from a tidal creek in Corte Madera Marsh, Northern San Francisco Bay, California, 2022-2023

Description

CTD profiles were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center to measure the physical characteristics of Corte Madera tidal creek over the course of a tidal cycle during one of the largest spring tides in both Winter and Summer. Conductivity, temperature, and pressure data were collected, as well as suspended-sediment concentration in the water column Each profile was collected from surface to bed. Profiles were collected on 4 days: August 8 and 9 of 2022 and January 19 and 20 of 2023. Data files are grouped by season (summer or winter). Users are advised to assess data quality carefully.
