Final CTD cast in the marinaPlot of CTD cast data: Temperature ~28.5degC, practical salinity ~35.7, relatively low dissolved oxygen saturation (86%), significant backscatter’s attenuation coefficient (~0.007 1/m), indication of low transparency of water, high concentration of Chlorophyll a (~7ug/L) indicates intence algie grow (we can see it on our hull!), also high concentration of fDOM (4.1ppb) indicates possible high level of oil in water due to enormous presence of motor boats and closeness of marina’s fuel station. I can state that this is an unhealthy environment!
