Whole rock geochemistry – major elements -  from selected basalts dredged from seamounts in the south Tasman Sea during RV Investigator voyage IN2018_V08

XRF geochemical major and trace element data of whole rocks collected from submarine edifices in the southern Tasman Sea. Samples that did not show alteration were used for the analysis. Whole rocks were crushed in an agate mill and analysed at the University of Tasmania XRF Facilities. Instrument was a PANalytical Axios Advanced X-Ray Spectrometer. Major elements were analysed via 32mm fusion discs prepared at 1100 degrees C in 5%Au/95%Pt crucibles 0.500g sample, 4.500g 12-22 Flux (Lithium Tetraborate-Metaborate mix), 0.0606g LiNO3 for silicates. Platinum/5% gold moulds used for cooling. Sulphide bearing samples have a different mix with more LiNO3 as oxidising agent and the mix is pre-ignited at 700 degrees C for 10 minutes. Ore samples and ironstones use 12/22 flux and a higher flux/sample ratio. Dolomites and limestones need pure lithium tetraborate as a flux. Iodine vapour is used as a releasing agent to remove discs from the mould. For trace elements 32mm diameter pressed powder pills (10g, 3.5 tonnes/cm-2), Sample Binder PVP-MC
Corrections for mass absorption are calculated using PANalytical Super-Q software with its Classic calibration model and alpha coefficients. In house inter-element corrections are also applied. PANalytical ProTrace and Compton scattering can also be used for many trace elements. For calibration, pure element oxide mixes in pure silica, along with International and Tasmanian reference rocks are used. Numerous checks of reference rocks and pure silica blanks are run with each program.

In-situ Halocarbon trace-gas concentrations measured by the Dirac GC-ECD during the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora Australis, 2012

The current data set contains in-situ halocarbon atmospheric measurements of CH3CCl3, CH2Br2, CHBr3, CHCl3, C2Cl4 made using a Gas Chromatograph - Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD) known as the micro- DIRAC.
Instrument description and setup details:
GC-ECD
Instrument Description:
"micro-Dirac: an autonomous instrument for halocarbon measurements"
B. Gostlow, A. D. Robinson, N. R. P. Harris, L. M. O'Brien, D. E. Oram, G. P. Mills, H. M. Newton, S. E. Yong, and J. A Pyle Atmos. Meas. Tech., 3, 507-521, 2010
Instrument Setup:
This instrument is sampling from a weather protected inlet positioned ~2 m off the front port side of the Monkey Deck of the Aurora Australis, directly above the bridge. The end of the Teflon sample line is bare (with an inserted glass wool filter) and contained within the "Ned Kelly", a large (~30 cm diameter) stainless steel can which protects against rain, snow, sea spray and major impacts. The quarter inch teflon sample line runs 60m (2 x 30m with 1 join) down to the GC-ECD which was located in a modified shipping container located on the foredeck. Ultra high purity He (99.995% purity) and N2 (99.998% purity) were fed ~ 6m into the instrument container via stainless steel 1/16" tubing from a smaller adjacent container containing a number of other gas cylinders (primarily He, N2 and H2). A cylinder of calibrated air is located within the instrument container to perform regular calibrations. 
Inlet flow rate of 1 L/min; sampling rate - about 20 samples per day.
Method description: a sample volume of 20 ml is passed through the adsorbent tube which quantitatively traps the compounds of interest. The tube is mounted across a 6 port 2 position valco valve. The adsorbent bed is then purged with helium to remove oxygen and the valco valve is switched to the 'inject' position. The tube is heated to 180 C, releasing the compounds of interest into a carrier flow of helium onto the separation column. The column is heated first isothermally at 35 C for 5 minutes before heating at 8 C/min to 145 C. The target compounds are separated according to boiling point and pass through the ECD. The chromatogram takes ~30 minutes to complete. After the bromoform peak has appeared the column is cooled back to 35 C, the valco valve is switched to the 'load' position and the next sample can be injected.

Adelie penguin occupancy survey of Mount Biscoe, 1985

Aerial and ground photos taken during a visit to Mount Biscoe in 1985 were used to map the extent of old guano and unoccupied pebble nests found in the area. The guano extended from the beach up the northern slope of the massif to an altitude of approximately 200m. Very few birds were present when the site was visited. The map was hand drawn and put into the paper documented below.  
With the aid of satellite imagery, the diagram was converted into a shapefile for the purposes of mapping the potential colony extent in this location.

Aurora Australis Voyage 1 2017/18 Track and Underway Data

On every voyage of the Aurora Australis, approximately 50 onboard sensors collect data on average every 10 seconds.  These data are known as the underway datasets.  The type of data collected include water and air temperature, wind speeds, ship speed and location, humidity, fluorescence, salinity and so on.  For the full list of available data types, see the website.
These data are broadcast "live" (every 30 minutes) back to Australia and are available via the Australian Oceanographic Data Centre's portal (see the provided link).  Once the ship returns to port, the data are then transferred to Australian Antarctic Division servers where they are then made available via the Marine Science Data Search system (see the provided URL).
This dataset contains the underway data collected during Voyage 1 of the Aurora Australis Voyage in the 2017/18 season.
Purpose of voyage: Davis Resupply - Davis over ice resupply, refuel and personnel deployment/retrieval. Deploy helicopters to Davis station.
Leader: Dr. Doug Thost
Deputy Leader: Mr. Andrew Cawthorn
Underway (meteorological) data are available online via the Australian Antarctic Division Data Centre web page (or via the Related URL section).

3-D mapping of sea ice draft with an autonomous underwater vehicle

We set out to achieve floe-scale 3-D mapping of sea ice draft and bio-optical parameters using a Multibeam SONAR and Hyperspectral radiometer mounted to an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV).  The AUV utilised was the 'JAGUAR' Seabed-class vehicle from the Deep Submergence Laboratory at the WoodsHole Oceanographic Institution. 
The AUV comes with a CTD and ADCP. However these are not deployed as scientific sensors and therefore are unsupported in terms of metadata.  In particular the CTD was not calibrated before or during the voyage. 
The AUV used a LongBaseLine system formed by three transponders to navigate to and from the survey grid.  Two were located on the ice and the third was deployed from the back of the ship with an acoustic communications modem.  Once at the survey grid beneath the sea ice, the AUV used the DVL to navigate using bottom-tracking of the underside of the sea ice.
We conducted 4 missions beneath sea-ice during the SIPEX-II voyage.
The current status of the data is that is in un-processed and unavailable until final processing is completed in 2013.
Persons interested in the data should contact Dr Guy Williams directly for further information and preliminary figures relating to the AUV missions.
The files currently in the archive are in raw form. Some preliminary data is provided for stations 2, 3, 4 and 6 as:
floe-2-20120926.mat
floe-3-20121003.mat
floe-4-20121006.mat
floe-6-20121013.mat
These can be accessed using the Seabed_plot routines (MATLAB) in this folder.
There is a readme file provided called what-is-this.txt
Also included is the video footage taken from the AUV using a GoPro HD Hero. 
Video Codec:  avc1
Resolution:  1920x1080 pixels
Frame Rate:  29.970030 f/s
Audio Codec:  mp4a
Audio Bitrate:  1536 kb/s
Finally, plots of the data for ice stations 2,3,4 and 6 are included in the preliminary figures folder. The file names indicate which ice station the plots are from.
