RV Investigator Voyage IN2019_V01 ADCP Data

Updated: 2019-05-23

This record describes the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2019_V01, titled: "The availability of Antarctic krill to large predators and their role in biogeochemical recycling in the Southern Ocean." The voyage took place from Hobart (TAS) to Hobart between January 19 and March 5, 2019. Voyage in2019_v01 used both active and passive acoustics for locating and mapping krill swarms. To minimise interference the ADCP equipment was turned off for most of the voyage. ADCP was active during the transits to and from the area of interest, and for brief periods during CTD casts while in the science area. Data was collected using UHDAS and post-processed using CODAS. The quality of the collected data was generally good. The University of Hawaii’s CODAS software dated 2017.10.01 was used for data post-processing. This dataset was processed and then archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart.
