The oceanographic dataset collected during the research cruise identified as CH40 on board the RRS Challenger

This dataset comprises 54 hydrographic data profiles, collected by a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) sensor package, in November 1988 from stations covering the south western North Sea (Norfolk sandbanks). A complete list of all data parameters are described by the SeaDataNet Parameter Discovery Vocabulary (PDV) keywords assigned in this metadata record. The data were collected by the University of Southampton Department of Oceanography as part of the North Sea Project Sandwaves/Sandbanks Process Study.
