BUSCADOR RECOLECTA

GIBRALTAR-2 Cruise (29SG20080915) carried out on the Research Vessel Sarmiento de Gamboa in 2008, GIBRALTAR: Comprehensive analysis of the marine ecosystem of the Strait of Gibraltar: physical forcing and trophic levels.The campaign was carried out between September 14 and October 12, 2008, using the oceanographic vessel 'Sarmiento de Gamboa'. During the campaign, two Doppler current meters (ADCP) were anchored in the Spanish and Moroccan continental shelves, as well as a chain of mechanical current meters, anchored north of the Threshold, between the Cabezas de Bajos and the Paleocanal Norte. At the same time, measurements were taken of CTD (conductivity, temperature and depth) and ADCP current profiles made from the vessel 'Sarmiento de Gamboa'. Samples of water and plankton were taken at the precise times and places for the subsequent biological analyzes in the laboratory. In addition, the area was flown over by an aircraft of the National Institute of Aerospace Technology (INTA) of Spain, with a multispectral probe that made AHS lines for the observation of surface currents through the movements of chlorophyll stains and variations in water temperature
