EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During SE1102L2

Metadata Updated: June 9, 2023

TZCF Oceanographic Survey (SE1102L2, EK60). Data were collected along the 158°W and 161°W Meridionals from 22°30′N-36°00′N and from 31°15′N-35°15′N. CTD cats were conducted at predetermined stations. CTDs were equipped with oxygen sensors and fluorometers, and chlorophyll and nutrients were measured at discrete depths. Biological backscatter and currents were monitored using the EK60 echosounder system (38, 70, and 120 kHz) and an RD Instruments ADCP along the transects.
