RV Investigator Voyage IN2018_V03 Hydrology Data

This record describes Hydrology (HYD) data collected collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator Voyage IN2018_V03, titled: "Integrated Marine Observing System: monitoring of East Australian Current property transports at 27S." The voyage took place between April 19 and May 10, 2018 departing Brisbane (QLD) and returning to Brisbane.

Five nutrients were analysed; silicate, phosphate, nitrate + nitrite, nitrite and ammonium. Certified reference materials for nutrients in seawater were within the specified limits of the certified value.

The Guildline salinometers were problematic at sea, samples from CTD 12, 13, 14, the underway thermosalinograph and Triaxus samples were collected in crimped top bottles and brought back to Hobart for analysis.

High quality data was produced for the three measured parameters.

This dataset has been archived at the CSIRO O&A Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart.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.
