Abstract
This dataset contains Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP), serial sensor, shipboard computer system (SCS) measurements, the ship load and cruise track data from aboard the R/V Point Sur for cruise DP04 for an area encompassing roughly 27°N to 28°N and 86.5°W to 90°W. Data were collected August 5-18, 2016. The overall purpose of this cruise was to perform deep water sampling of in-situ seawater and associated fauna.
