RV Investigator Voyage IN2021_E01 EM710 MKII Multibeam Echosounder Data

This record describes multibeam echosounder data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2021_E01 (Trials and Calibration) which departed Hobart on the 10th November 2021 and returned to Hobart on the 14th November 2021. 
The purpose of this voyage was to undertake post port-period equipment calibrations and commissioning, sea trials and personnel training. The Kongsberg EM710 MKII multibeam echosounder was used to acquire seafloor bathymetry and backscatter information and watercolumn backscatter in Storm Bay and offshore to the southeast of Tasman Peninsula. A patch test calibration was performed to determine the angular offsets of the system. 
The EM710 MKII provides a 0.5° by 1° transmit and receive angular resolution respectively. The echosounder's nominal frequency range is from 40 to 100 kHz and during this voyage was acquired with a frequency range setting of 70 to 100 kHz. 
Data are stored in .all raw format for bathymetry and backscatter and .wcd format for watercolumn backscatter at CSIRO. There are 78 files totalling 14.3 GB of raw bathymetry (.all) data and 76 files totalling 95.6 GB of raw watercolum (.wcd) in this dataset. Sound velocity profiles were applied to this data during data acquisition. 
Bathymetry data contained in *.all format are corrected for motion and position. GPS tide corrections were applied to the processed data using the EGM2008 model (EGM_2008_1Min_Aust_WGS84.csar).
Processed data has had outliers removed. Processed line data are available in *.gsf and ascii format, and processed bathymetry in geotiff format.

Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas - Regional Subsets - Predicted Seamount locations

Seamounts and knolls are "undersea mountains", the former rising more than 1000 m from the seafloor. These features provide important habitats for aquatic predators, demersal deep-sea fish and benthic invertebrates. However most seamounts have not been surveyed and their numbers and locations are not well known. Previous efforts to locate and quantify seamounts have used relatively coarse bathymetry grids. Here we use global bathymetric data at 30 arc-sec resolution to identify seamounts and knolls. We identify 33,452 seamounts and 138,412 knolls, representing the largest global set of identified seamounts and knolls to date. We compare estimated seamount numbers, locations, and depths with validation sets of seamount data from New Zealand and Azores. This comparison indicates the method we apply finds 94% of seamounts, but may overestimate seamount numbers along ridges and in areas where faulting and seafloor spreading creates highly complex topography. The seamounts and knolls identified herein are significantly geographically biased towards areas surveyed with ship-based soundings. As only 6.5% of the ocean floor has been surveyed with soundings it is likely that new seamounts will be uncovered as surveying improves. Seamount habitats constitute approximately 4.7% of the ocean floor, whilst knolls cover 16.3%. Regional distribution of these features is examined, and we find a disproportionate number of productive knolls, with a summit depth of o 1.5 km, located in the Southern Ocean. Less than 2% of seamounts are within marine protected areas and the majority of these are located within exclusive economic zones with few on the High Seas. The database of seamounts and knolls resulting from this study will be a useful resource for researchers and conservation planners.
The data was collected to support the Western South Pacific Regional Workshop to facilitate the description of Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas (EBSA) UNEP/CBD/SBSTTA/16/INF/6

RV Investigator Voyage IN2015_V01 BASTA cloud radar (DRAFT)

This record describes data from the BASTA cloud radar, collected on the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2015_V01. This voyage departed Hobart on the 21st March and returned to Hobart on the 29th of March, 2015.
The BASTA cloud radar is a vertically-pointing 95 GHz FM-CW (Frequency Modulation - Continuous Wave) radar. It measures vertical profiles of radar reflectivity (approximately proportional to the cloud particle diameter to the 4th power), and Doppler velocity (sum of vertical wind speed and terminal fall velocity of cloud particles when pointing vertically) at 1.5s temporal resolution, and four different vertical resolutions (12.5, 25, 100 and 200m) up to 12 km height. Currently the instrument is not mounted on a stabilized platform but will be in a near future.
This cloud radar is owned by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. It was developed by the Laboratoire ATmosphere, Milieux et Observations Spatiales (LATMOS) in France. It is serial number 2.
Calibration of the cloud radar was performed in 2014 using fixed targets of known reflectivity, and reflectivity in light rain.
