RV Investigator Voyage IN2018_T01 Hydrology Data

Updated: 2018-07-13

This record describes Hydrology (HYD) data collected from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator research voyage in2018_t01, titled: "Physical and biogeochemical gradients in the East Australian Current." The voyage took place from Hobart (TAS) to Brisbane (QLD) between April 6 and April 16, 2018. Hydrology samples were collected from Niskin bottles sampled at various depths during a Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) deployment. Parameters analysed were salinity, dissolved oxygen, phosphate, silicate, nitrate plus nitrite and ammonium. Underway samples were also collected every 12 hours (or once every 24 if a CTD coincided with collection time) for nutrient analysis from the underway system which collects water from 7 m depth and is not filtered. This dataset has been archived at the CSIRO O&A Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the Voyage Report and Data Processing Report.
