EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During JC214

Metadata Updated: January 1, 2026

The study was conducted within a mode-water anticyclonic eddy during the 2021 EXport Processes in the Ocean from RemoTe Sensing (EXPORTS) field campaign in the Northeast Atlantic. The main goal of this project was to quantify biological pump by tracking a long-lived, retentive eddy. The sampling strategy leveraged the retentive nature of the anticyclonic eddy in a Lagrangian framework, integrating multidisciplinary measurements from both autonomous and ship-based platforms.
