      <abstract>Broad-scale cruises carried out CTD (Salinity, Temperature and
      Depth) surveys of Georges Bank/Gulf of Maine and adjacent waters. On each
      cruise stations were occupied to provide uniform bank-wide coverage.
      Ancillary stations focused on the region of the bank where larval cod and
      haddock are found. Sampling was conducted on a monthly basis (Jan-June,
      1995 to 1999). Ship/cruise/dates: ship_name cruiseid date_start date_end
