The maps below show some of the processed data for the flight of April 6. The first map shows the flight track and fish schools that were located along the track. The red squares indicate fish schools. The second map shows the beam attenuation coefficient of the lidar for the same flight track. Attenuation coefficient is a measure of how clear the water is.
Smaller spots indicate the water is more clear and bigger spots indicate the water is less clear.
The third map is a plot of the ship track of the David Starr Jordan. Egg pump data are where seawater is pumped through a set of filters and then the fish eggs are counted. In this case anchovy eggs were counted. Here are some examples of the processed data from these flights. In the following graphs, the Y axis is depth.
