Graphs of core properties from shipboard CTD bottle (BCTD) and profiling (PCTD) samples taken in Monterey Bay, from 1989-Present. Depth time contours and characterization graphs of physical, chemical, and biological samples are updated quarterly.

Time series cruises are monthly. Major stations consist of C1, C7, H1, H3, Mooring1, and Mooring2. From 1989-1992 the cruises occupied 4 stations C1, H1, H3, C7. In 1993 these stations were reduced to 3 along an onshore/offshore transect, stations C1, Mooring1; Mooring2. Included in the time series data are the quarterly hydrographic surveys along CalCOFI Line 67 for the stations C1; 67-50,Mooring1, H3; 67-55 and Mooring2. (station map, methods and materials).
