Thermograph network in the Gulf of St. Lawrence / by B. Pettigrew, D. Gilbert and R. Desmarais.: Fs97-18/311E-PDF
"The thermograph network program of the Maurice Lamontagne Institute started in 1993 with six monitoring stations. The main aim was to measure seawater surface temperature in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence and to maintain a database of those data. Today’s measurements are no longer limited to surface water temperature: some stations are now equipped with multi-devices platforms allowing the measurement of oceanographic, optical and meteorological parameters. However, we focus our attention in this report exclusively on the seawater temperature records with the goal of facilitating their use by identifying available data as well as missing data records. We have tabulated relevant record numbers that characterize the completeness of the raw data files recorded during the period from 1993 to 2014. To complement these tables we plotted figures for every year that show the time intervals with valid data records for each station. We also present some examples of physical oceanographic phenomena in the coastal waters of the program area"--Abstract, p. vi.
