RV Investigator Voyage IN2020_V09 EK80/EK60 Echosounder

This record describes scientific split-beam echosounder data collected on the RV Investigator voyage IN2020_V09 (SOTS: Southern Ocean Time Series automated moorings for climate and carbon cycle studies southwest of Tasmania), which departed Hobart on the 27th August 2020 and returned to Hobart on the 12th September 2020.  In addition to the tasks at the SOTS site the voyage also recovered a Rintoul mooring that was deployed during IN2020_V05. 
The Simrad EK80 wide band transceivers (WBT) 18, 38, 70, 120, 200 and 333 kHz, as well as the EK60 split-beam GPT 18kHz were used to acquire acoustic backscatter data to a range of 1500 m, during the voyage. All frequencies were logged sporadically (only when transiting) for the extent of the voyage. The frequencies were set to passive for the periods when stationary during the voyage.  Note: the EK80 18kHz WBT failed at 12:06 on the 28th August 2020 (UTC) and was no longer used for the voyage. The 18kHz transducer was changed over to the EK60 GPT for the remainder of the voyage (in place of the 18kHz WBT). 
Data are stored in .raw, .bot and *.idx format at CSIRO. There are 291 files totalling 27.7 GB of raw data in this dataset.
No processing has been conducted on this data.
Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report. Additional data products may be available on request.

GIS Layer: Sea Salinity in the Australian Region

ESRI grids showing sea salinity, linearly interpolated from CARS2000 mean and seasonal fields to 0.1 degree spaced grid, at depths of 0, 150, 500, 1000 and 2000 metres. The loess filter used to create CARS2000 resolves at each point a mean value and a sinusoid with 1 year period (and in some cases a 6 month period sinusoid - the "semi-annual cycle".) The provided "annual amplitude" is simply the magnitude of that annual sinusoid. CARS is a set of seasonal maps of temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, phosphate and silicate, generated using Loess mapping from all available oceanographic data in the region. It covers the region 100-200E, 50-0S, on a 0.5 degree grid, and on 56 standard depth levels. Higher resolution versions are also available for the Australian continental shelf. The data was obtained from the World Ocean Atlas 98 and CSIRO Marine and NIWA archives. It was designed to improve on the Levitus WOA98 Atlas, in the Australian region. CARS2000 is derived from ocean cast data, which is always measured above the sea floor. However, for properties which do not change rapidly near the sea floor, this would not lead to a significant error. All the limitations of CARS2000 also apply here.

RV Investigator Voyage IN2017_V01 CTD Data

This record describes the Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2017_V01 titled: "Interactions of the Totten Glacier with the Southern Ocean through multiple glacial cycles." The voyage took place from Hobart (TAS) to Hobart between the 14th January and 5th March, 2017.
Data for 33 deployments were acquired during this voyage using a Seabird SBE911 CTD, fitted with 36 twelve litre bottles on the rosette sampler. Casts 1-10, 13 – 33 were acquired using the Seabird SBE911 CTD unit 20, and casts 11 and 12 were acquired using the Seabird SBE911 CTD unit 22. CTD and sensors were changed in efforts to remediate sensor issues. CSIRO -supplied calibration factors were used to compute the pressures, and preliminary temperature and conductivity values. The data were subjected to automated QC to remove spikes and out-of-range values.
Processing was completed using CapPro processing software, version 2.9.
For the duration of the voyage significant spikes were observed across all recorded sensor channels. Investigation strongly suggests electrical interference was the cause of the data spikes, as mitigation measures have alleviated the issue. Care was taken in post processing to remove the spikes while maintaining true data features. The nature of the spiking was primarily extreme values persisting for a single scan, which were suitably detected and flagged by evaluating the second-difference of the data. An additional filter was also applied to the data which evaluated the median and standard deviation of the conductivity over a moving window, which was used to detect extreme changes in the sensor values characteristic of the noise induced spikes.
The final conductivity calibration was based on two deployment groupings, due to sensor changes during the voyage. The final calibration for casts 1-13 from the secondary sensor had a standard deviation (S.D) of 0.0010393 PSU, within our target of ‘better than 0.002 PSU’. The final calibration for casts 14-33 from the secondary sensor had a standard deviation (S.D) of 0.0020084 PSU. The standard product of 1dbar binned averaged were produced using data from the secondary sensors.
The final Oxygen calibration from the primary sensor had a S.D of 0.85991 uM. The agreement between the sensor and bottle data was good. Both Oxygen sensors calibrated closely.
The Biospherical photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), Wetlabs Transmissometer, the Wetlabs ECO chlorophyll, and O&amp;A IMU sensors were also installed on the auxiliary A/D channels of the CTD.
The collected data were subsequently processed and archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&amp;A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset may be contained in the Voyage Summary and the CTD Data Processing Report.
