EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DY1307

Gulf of Alaska Acoustic-Trawl Survey of Walleye Pollock (DY1307, EK60). The Midwater Assessment and Conservation Engineering (MACE) program of NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) conducted acoustic-trawl (AT) stock assessment surveys during the late spring/early summer of 2013 in the Gulf of Alaska to estimate the distribution and abundance of walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus). The survey was conducted on the Gulf of Alaska shelf extending from the Islands of Four Mountains to Yakutat Bay, 8 June to 9 August 2013, in three legs (leg 1, 8-26 June; leg 2, 30 June to 18 July; leg 3, 22 July to 9 August) aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, a 64 meter stern trawler equipped with acoustic and oceanographic instrumentation. The vessel departed Dutch Harbor, Alaska on 9 June with intermediate port calls in Kodiak, Alaska. Smaller surveys were also conducted in several bays and around islands including Sanak Trough (15 June), Morzhovoi Bay (15 June), Pavlof Bay (16 June), the Shumagin Islands area (including Renshaw Point, Unga Strait, and West Nagai Strait; 19-23 June), Mitrofania Island (22-23 June), Nakchamik Island (24-25 June), Shelikof Strait (1-7 July), Alitak Bay (9-10 July), Barnabas Trough (11-14 July), Chiniak Trough (14-16 July), Marmot Bay (16-17 July), Prince William Sound (29 July to 1 August), Kayak Island Trough (3-4 August), and Yakutat Trough (5-7 August). The cruise ended when the vessel arrived in Kodiak, Alaska on 9 August 2013.

Shelikof Strait Acoustic-Trawl Survey of Walleye Pollock (DY1002, ME70). The Midwater Assessment and Conservation Engineering (MACE) program of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC; NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service) conducted an acoustic-trawl (AT) stock assessment survey in the central Gulf of Alaska (GOA) and Shelikof Strait during late winter/early spring of 2010 to estimate the distribution and abundance of walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus). The survey was conducted between 18 and 30 March, 2010, and included the central Gulf of Alaska along the shelf break east of Chirikof Island and throughout Shelikof Strait. The survey was conducted onboard NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, a 64 meter stern trawler equipped with acoustic and oceanographic instrumentation in addition to biological sampling capabilities. The primary instrumentation for the survey was a Simrad EK60 split-beam echosounder system utilizing five frequencies (18, 38, 70, 120, and 200 kHz) and a Simrad ME70 multibeam echosounder, with the ME70 transmit pulse synchronized to the EK60 system. This data set includes Kongsberg Simrad ME70 raw multibeam data, Seabird CTD data, and ship's navigation/oceanographic/meterological sensor data.

EK80 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DP06

All frequencies were calibrated and updated on day one of the trip. MOC and 200 kHz had minor issues on second day but were quickly resolved and worked much better. Weather was poor on July 23rd making it difficult to operate. Additional calibration on July 28th because conditions were exceptionally good. Overall, cruise conditions were managable and resulted in successful data aquisition.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During HB1401

NEFSC 2014 Spring Bottom Trawl Survey (HB1401, EK60). The NEFSC bottom trawl survey is a fisheries independent, multi-species survey that provides the primary scientific data for fisheries assessments in the U.S. mid-Atlantic and New England regions. Two bottom trawl surveys are conducted each year, one in the spring and one in the autumn. The survey is a standardized, stratified random design, with stratification based on bathymetry and multiple trawl sites within each stratum. Trawl sites are selected randomly, but the overall ship path is south to north. The survey covers the continental shelf and U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina into the Canadian EEZ. The primary gear is a bottom trawl, with CTD, multifrequency echosounder, and a host of other scientific sensor data collected ancillary to the bottom trawl catches.

EM122 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During AT26-10

AT26-10 Chemosynthetic Microbial Communities at Deep-Sea Vents (EM122). The cruise will include 16 dives with DSV Alvin or ROV Jason, to allow time for deployment and collection of experiments and for extensive sampling of discrete vents along the axis of the 9Â°46âN to 9Â°53âN segment of the East Pacific Rise (EPR). We propose to deploy experiments/sample a low temperature diffuse flow vent (e.g., Crab Spa; T: 10-30Â°C), and a higher temperature vent (e.g., L-vent; T: 30-60Â°C). Furthermore, we will carry out additional opportunistic sampling for a limited set of parameters (e.g., chemistry, 454- pyrotags, FISH, in situ carbon fixation) of vents that fall into these two categories, or that might have developed since the last visit to the site (May 2012). During the course of the cruise we will collect biomass from fluids and biofilms (deployment/recover experimental microbial colonizers) by utilizing a Large Volume Pump (LVP) (McLane WTS 6-1-142LV). We have successfully used this set up in previous cruises and were able to collect up to ~2,000 liters of hydrothermal fluids resulting in enough biomass (cell density is 2-5 x 105 cells per ml) for subsequent âomicâ analyses. During large volume filtration, the volume filtered is recorded by the LVP onboard computer and the vent fluid sampled is monitored with a time series temperature probe, H2S, and pH sensors. Fluid samples for chemical analyses will be collected at each deployment site using the isobaric gas-tight samplers, which will also be used to sample fluids from the two focus sites for the shipboard incubations. Finally, we will deployment/recover experimental microbial colonizers to collect microbial biofilms.We have successfully used these devices in previous cruises to collect sufficient biomass for metatranscriptomic analyses.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During NF-15-01-USVI

Mapping Essential Fish Habitat in the US Caribbean to Inform MPA Management (NF-15-01-USVI, EK60). Scientists will collect high resolution multibeam and acoustic fisheries data in mid-water
depths approximately 10 to 2000 meters so as to continue to characterize seafloor
habitats within all U.S. States, Territories, and Commonwealths. The objective of this
project is to collect a multibeam bathymetry dataset with 100% seafloor ensonification,
along with multibeam backscatter suitable for seafloor characterization. Fishery acoustics
data will be collected to characterize broad-scale fish abundance, biomass, and utilization
patterns, as well as to locate and document fish spawning aggregations. Multibeam data
will be collected to conform to IHO Order 1 (less than 100m) and Order 2 (greater than 100m) accuracy
standards. The strategies developed for each survey area will take into account the
minimum depths, general bathymetry, and time allotment. The delineation and
identification of seafloor habitats will be assisted by the use of a moderate-depth
Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). The vehicle has video and frame camera capability
to depths of 300 meters and will be used for transect sampling within areas mapped
during this mission. Two Slocum Glider G2 will be deployed during the duration of the
project to collect oceanographic data and passive fish acoustics in the study region.

EK500 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DS0801

2008 Winter 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 m include: temperature, salinity, oxygen, phosphate, silicate, nitrate and nitrite, chlorophyll, transmissometer, PAR, C14 primary productivity, phytoplankton biodiversity, zooplankton biomass, and zooplankton biodiversity.
