EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During SE1704

West Hawaii Integrated Ecosystem Assessment Survey (SE1704, EK60). During this cruise, small-boat surveys were conducted of surface slicks in order to assess their ecological relevance and underlying physical derivers.  To assess the slick-associated plankton community and to collect samples for microplastics, a stern-towed surface plankton net and vertical drop net of varying mesh sizes (50 and 335 um) were utilized.  To assess the presence of higher, more mobile trophic groups near surface slicks, active acoustic surveys were performed in conjunction with plankton tows.  Physical and chemical sampling of surface slicks occurred in concert with plankton and acoustic surveys. A hand-held CTD, hand lowered over the side to collect vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and water clarity. Grab samples of water were collected for nutrient and chlorophyll concentrations.  Areal surveys of surface slicks were performed using an NMFS Unmanned Areal System (UAS), specifically an APH-22 hexacopter to provide high-resolution areal imagery of surface slicks in the region.

EK500 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DE0301

Halifax Sound Range Trials (DE0301, EK500). Radiated sound measurements of vessels are important for monitoring the noise characteristics of fishing and research vessels. A vessel's radiated noise can have behavioral effects on marine life which in turn can influence abundance and distribution estimates collected by these vessels. During this cruise, acoustic data were collected on the transit to and from Halifax, Nova Scotia.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During NF-12-04-SERA

Cruise NF-12-04-SERA (Sanctuary Regional Development and Assessment) (EK60). 1)Ship based mapping and characterization of benthic habitats in the waters around Grayâs Reef National Marine Sanctuary. Collected data will need to include backscatter.2)Continuation of invertebrate recruitment investigation in Grayâs Reef. This project will include diving to assess the colonization and succession of invertebrates to a natural substrate. 3)Continue investigations to quantify variation in space and time of the abundance ofschooling prey and mid-water predators at mid-shelf reefs: this involves conducting survey lines using the EK-60 survey system. 4)Continue collecting data on the abundance,diversity and distribution of both fishes and invertebrates both in side and outside the proposed Research Area in Grayâs Reef.This will require divers to conduct visual fis hcensuses along transects and take pictures of quadrats to assess invertebrate fauna. 5)Grayâs Reef would like to explore the possibility of conducting night dives aboard its own diving vessels provided that this does not present theNancy Fostercrew with unduestaffing/overtime issues and would be worked out in advance of conducting operations.

EK500 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DE0809

NEFSC 2008 Atlantic Herring Acoustic/Midwater Trawl Survey (DE0809, EK500). The NEFSC Atlantic herring acoustic survey is a fisheries independent survey that provides scientific data for Atlantic herring assessments in the U.S. mid-Atlantic and New England regions. The survey is conducted in the fall on pre-spawning and spawning herring primarily in the Georges Bank region, but with other historical sites in the Gulf of Maine surveyed. The survey is a systematic design with parallel transects oriented perpendicular to bathymetric features. Midwater trawl sites are selected on an ad hoc basis to sample acoustic backscatter attributed to Atlantic herring as well as backscatter by other organisms. The primary gear is multifrequency Simrad echosounders, but midwater trawl, CTD, and a host of other scientific sensor data are collected ancillary to the acoustic data.

ME70 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During SH1203

2012 Spring CalCOFI. The California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations (CalCOFI) are a unique partnership of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, NOAA Fisheries Service and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The organization was formed in 1949 to study the ecological aspects of the sardine population collapse off California. Today our focus has shifted to the study of the marine environment off the coast of California, the management of its living resources, and monitoring the indicators of El Nino and climate change. CalCOFI conducts quarterly cruises off southern and central California, collecting a suite of hydrographic and biological data on station and underway.  Data collected at depths down to 500 meters include: temperature, salinity, oxygen, phosphate, silicate, nitrate and nitrite, chlorophyll, transmissometer, PAR, C14 primary productivity, phytoplankton biodiversity, zooplankton biomass, and zooplankton biodiversity.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During RL1606

2016 Summer California Current Ecosystem CPS Survey (RL1606, EK60). The cruise sampled the California Current Ecosystem from San Diego, CA to Vancouver Island, BC, CA. Multi-frequency (18-, 38-, 70-, 120-, 200-, and 333-) General Purpose Transceivers and Wide Band Transceivers (Simrad EK60 GPTs and EK80 WBTs), were configured with split-beam transducers (ES18-11, ES38B, ES70-7C, ES120-7C, ES200-7C, ES333-7c, respectively). The transducers were mounted on the bottom of a retractable keel called a "centerboard". The keel was retracted (~ 5-m depth) during calibration, and in the intermediate position (~7-m depth) throughout the survey. Exceptions were made during shallow water operations, when the keel was retracted; or during times of heavy weather, when the keel was extended (~9-m depth) to provide extra stability. In addition, the Simrad ME70, MS70, and SX90 were used to sample the water column simultaneously using K-sync to sequence pinging between sounders and sonars. The EK80s were removed from the ship halfway through the survey on August 19 and resinstalled on September 19. EK80 data was collected in CW mode.

ME70 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1204

Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (PC1204, ME70). The Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (SEFIS) was created by the National Marine Fisheries Service in 2010 and operates out of the NOAA Beaufort Laboratory. The survey conducts fishery-independent sampling and related applied research, focusing on the assessment of spatial variability in distribution and abundance of marine fish species within the snapper-grouper complex, via data collected from fish traps, video cameras, and acoustic gears.  The NOAA ship Pisces departed Morehead City, NC on 24 July 2012 for a SEFIS research cruise in continental shelf and shelf-break waters off the southeastern U.S.  During this survey, 385 sq km of multibeam data were collected from 29 discrete areas in the sea area of Raleigh Bay, NC.  A total of 328 concomitant trap-camera samples were collected. During PC1204, Caris multibeam processing methods were used at sea for the first time.  SEFIS program website:
