RV Investigator Voyage IN2024_T01 CTD Data

Updated: 2024-10-15

This record describes CTD data collected from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator voyage IN2024_T01, titled: "Freemantle to Hobart, 2024 Transit". The voyage took place between 9 March 2024 and 20 March 2024, departing from Freemantle (WA) and returning to Hobart (TAS). Data for 7 CTD deployments were acquired using the Sea-Bird SBE9+V2 CTD unit #24 (S/N 1354), fitted with 36 twelve-litre bottles on the rosette sampler. Sea-Bird-supplied calibration factors were used to compute the pressures and preliminary conductivity values. CSIRO-supplied calibrations were applied to the temperature data. The data were subjected to automated QC to remove spikes and out-of-range values. Additional sensors include: Altimeter (Tritech PA500), Transmissometer (Wetlabs C-Star ), CDOM, Chlorophyll-a, Scattering (Wetlabs ECO FLCDRTD) were installed on the auxiliary A/D channels of the CTD. The processed data has been archived by the CSIRO National Collections and Marine Infrastructure (NCMI) Information and Data Centre (IDC). Additional information regarding this dataset may be contained in the Voyage Summary and the CTD Data Processing Report.
