Description:This report summarizes the March 15 - April 1, 2014 cruise on the UNOLS ship R/V Atlantic Explorer involving full-water-column CTD and lowered ADCP proles, along with shipboard ADCP proles, conducted within the Florida Straits and east of Abaco Island, Bahamas. At each station, a package consisting of a Seabird Electronics Model 9/11+ CTD O2 system, an RDI 150 kHz Workhorse Lowered Acoustic Doppler Current Proler, a RDI 300 kHz Workhorse Lowered Acoustic Doppler Current Proler, and 24 10-liter Niskin bottles, was to be lowered to the bottom. This report includes a description of the calibrations procedures and proles of pressure, salinity (conductivity), temperature, and dissolved oxygen concen- tration. Water samples were also collected at various depths and analyzed for salinity and oxygen concentration to aid with CTD calibration. A total of 41 CTD-O2/LADCP stations were occupied. PIES/CPIES data were downloaded from 6 sites. There was a successful recovery and deployment of a PIES at the A2 site. Mooring operations include recovery and redeployment of three tall moorings with a mixture of microcats and current meters. Two two bottom landers instrumented were recovered and one was deployed equipped with bottom pressure recorders. As part of NOAA contribution to the Global Surface Drifter Program, 10 surface velocity drifters equipped with sea-surface temperature sensors were deployed. doi:10.7289/V5348H87 (http://dx.doi.org/10.7289/V5348H87).
