RV Investigator Voyage IN2018_T01 ADCP Data

This record describes the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator 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 5 and April 14, 2018.

Data was collected during IN2018_T01 for the duration of the voyage. Data was collected using UHDAS and post-processed using CODAS.

The RDI Ocean Surveyor 150kHz ADCP was out of service, being replaced by a WorkHorse Quartermaster 150kHz ADCP for the duration of the voyage.

The RDI Ocean Surveyor 75kHz ADCP was run in broadband mode during the port period and the first day of the voyage whilst leaving Hobart and in narrowband mode from 0016 07/04/2018 for the duration of the voyage.

Internal triggering was used.

The drop keel was at 2m below the waterline for most of the voyage and lowered to 4m in periods of deep water.

See the voyage computing and electronics report for more details regarding data acquisition.

This dataset was processed and then archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart.
