Location
Moorings were deployed from 24 March to 11 July 2004 at 7 locations along the estuary from the Battery to Bear Mountain. Sites included the Battery, Lincoln Harbor, Spuyten Duyvil, Hastings, Tappan Zee, Croton Point, and Bear Mountain (see readme file for coordinates). Along-estuary hydrographic surveys on 24-25 March and 6-10 July spanned from the Battery upriver to where the salinity fell below 1 psu.

Abstract
This dataset includes data from moorings and shipboard observations in the Hudson River estuary during the spring and summer of 2004. The moorings were deployed in the thalweg at 7 sites for 108 days and included a combination of bottom temperature, conductivity, and pressure measurements as well as upward-looking ADCPs. Each mooring site also had near-surface temperature and conductivity measurements. Shipboard CTD surveys were carried out along the estuary on 7 days just after the deployment and just before the recovery of the moorings.
