In Jan - Feb 2016, the signal of a colder, fresher water mass appears to be captured by several CTDs on GA03FLMA and GA03FLMB. Salinity and density drop suddenly for several days. This appears to be a real event as the phenomenon is captured by multiple instruments located on two moorings, but should be further investigated. Density and salinity drop suddenly on the following CTDs:
GA03FLMA-RIM01-02-CTDMOG044
GA03FLMA-RIM01-02-CTDMOG045
GA03FLMA-RIM01-02-CTDMOG046
GA03FLMB-RIM01-02-CTDMOG065
GA03FLMB-RIM01-02-CTDMOG066
