EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During OS1607

2016 Summer 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.

EK80 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During BordelonMC20

One overnight survey of the seep was performed in order to determine the flow rate of hydrocarbons in the watercolumn using a vessel mounted broadband echo sounder and ADCP. The echo sounder and ADCP were mounted on a pole on the port side of the Gerry Bordelon.  ADCP surveys were performed in order to determine the magnitude and direction of flow in the area and then broadband acoustic surveys were performed. The broadband acoustic suverys were performed in two parts: the across seep surveys and the along seep surveys. The across seep surveys were performed first and were used to determine the position of the seep as it transitted downstream of the source. That position was then used to inform the location of along seep surveys in which the entire seep, from source to surface was visualized. 

All times UTC

0120-0136 Preliminary ADCP survey. Track lines are run perpendicular to the nomial direction of flow to the southwest of the seep source (downstream of the seep) and northeast of the source (upstream of the seep). Flow is nominally to the northeast.

0227 - 0652 Across-seep echo sounder surveys. Track lines are run perpendicular to the nomial direction of the flow starting from downstream of the downed platform and moving downstream. Lines were approximately 1 km long with spacing approximately 50 m. Once the seep was no longer detected in the across seep survey lines, the survey was repeated moving back from upstream to downstream. 

0704-0838 Along-seep echo sounder surveys. The position of the seep determined in the across-seep survey lines was used to inform the survey lines run in the direction of flow. These lines were used to ensonify the entire seep in a single pass from origin to the surface.

0848-0921 Second ADCP survey.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1206

NEFSC 2012 Atlantic Herring Acoustic/Midwater Trawl Survey (PC1206, EK60). 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.

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1301

Northeast Integrated Pelagic Survey (PC1301, EK60). During the survey we will quantify the spatial distribution of the following parameters: water currents, water properties, phytoplankton, microzooplankton, mesozooplankton, pelagic fish and invertebrates, sea turtles, marine mammals, and sea birds. We will use traditional and novel techniques and instruments. In essence, the approaches of the Ecosystem Monitoring survey and the NEFSC Herring Acoustic survey are combined here and augmented to include a broad array of measurements of the pelagic ecosystem. Operational objectives are to: (1) collect underway data using TSG, SCS, and ADCP; (2) complete CTD and bongo operations at stations throughout area, (3) calibrate the EK60 Scientific Sounder, (4) conduct acoustic surveys using the EK60, (5) collect biological data to verify species-specific acoustic measurements using midwater trawls, (6) collect marine mammal and seabird observations.

The survey was conducted aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, a 64 meter stern trawler equipped with acoustic and oceanographic instrumentation, utilizing a Simrad EK60 split-beam echosounder system. The vessel departed Kodiak, Alaska on 2 July and arrived in Kodiak on 29 July. The cruise was completed in two legs with a port call in Dutch Harbor, Alaska 12-13 July. The EK60 echosounder system was calibrated at the start of the cruise in Three Saints Bay, Kodiak Island, Alaska on 2 June, and at the end of the cruise in Three Saints Bay on 28 July 2005.
