The bridge logs from oceanographic cruises from DFO ships such as the J.P. Tully, Vector, Parizeau, Endeavor, weatherships, etc. Including the automatically logged data collected from continuous surface sampler.

CTD and chemical data collected on arctic cruises from approx 1980 to present.

Oceanographic data from surveys conducted along coastal British Columbia, the Inner Passages, British Columbia inlets, and out to Ocean Station Papa. Called various programs, North Pacific Surveys, Monitor Project, Coastal Seaways Project, Inlet Cruises (pre-1990`s), Strait of Georgia and Juan de Fuca and other projects. Ships included the Whitethroat, the Oshawa, the Endeavor, the Parizeau, the Vector, the Pandora II, and others. Regular measurements included bathythermographs, temperature (reversing thermometers), salinity, dissolved oxygen, secchi depths, nutrients, plankton tows, meteorology.

Time series data to correlate plankton patterns with fish studies. Program started in 1977, to 1982. Then was transferred to Fisheries Patrol Vessel Tanu in 1983. It finished around 1989. A number of standard stations and opportunitistic stations were sampled; CTD and zooplankton haul data were collected.

Satellite imagery from 1991 to present (and continuing). Some historical (pre-1991) data exist.

Data collected from neutrally buoyant, autonomous drifters and profilers, which record temperature and salinity data at preprogrammed depths for 10 days, rise to the water surface recording temperature and salinity, transmit the information and their locations to an orbiting satellite before returning to depth and continuing another cycle. The satellite relays the data to land-based receiving stations for processing. Will eventually constitute part of ARGO, a global network of similar floats.

Current, sound backscatter, and ice draft and movement data from acoustic Doppler current profilers stationed at 3 sites in the Beaufort Sea. Continuous, year-round data.

Data from CTD casts taken daily at Nanoose Bay.

CTD data collected from the vicinity of Cobb Seamount, 1990-1992.

Continuous profile data from stations along Line P, NE Pacific. Line-P is a series of oceanographic stations extending from the mouth of the Juan de Fuca Strait, south of Vancouver Island, to Ocean Station Papa at 50N 145W, in the Pacific Ocean. There originally were 13 stations; in 1981 the number of stations was extended to 26.May also include other lines and other projects (Line Z, Line R, Line PE, JGOFS, WOCE, Seamounts, Alaskan Gyre, Eddy, ).
