Deploy various tags on GoMex whales 2. Photo and video documentation of GoMex whales 3. Recovery of short duration tags (camera and acoustic tags) 4. Collect tissue samples (biopsies) of GoMex whales from R3. 5. Deploy sonobuoys to collect recordings of the sounds produced by GoMex whales and of anthropogenic sounds 6. Periodic collection of oceanographic and environmental data including scientific echosounders (EK80) and acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) data to quantify acoustic backscatter due to small fish and zooplankton 7. AdHoc collection of vertical profiles of hydrographic parameters (e.g., temperature, salinity, oxygen concentration) via CTD and Expendable Bathythermographs (XBTs) 8. Deploy and recover autonomous camera and acoustic recording buoys at select locations 9. Service HARP buoys located in the northeastern quadrant of the Gulf of Mexico The primary objective of this cruise is to deploy various remotely applied instruments (tags) on select Gulf of Mexico Bryde’s whales (GoMex whale). The mix of tags includes non-recoverable position beacons (satellite tags) and recoverable camera and acoustic recording tags. All tags will be attached via close approach to free-ranging whales with the scientific small boat (R3). Secondary objectives will include the collection of acoustic recordings via non-recoverable sonobuoys, collection of hydrographic profiles via CTD deployments, camera trap deployment and recovery cycles, passive acoustic drift buoy deployment and recovery, active acoustic surveys via the Simrad EK80 system, servicing of autonomous seafloor recorders and cetacean tissue biopsy sampling. The project will commence in Pascagoula, MS on 8 November 2018 and conclude in Pascagoula, MS on 2 December 2018. completed NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Water Column Sonar Data Manager (303) 497-4742 325 Broadway, Mail Code E/NE42 Boulder CO 80305-3328 USA wcd.info@noaa.gov pointOfContact notPlanned Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Acoustics > Acoustic Scattering Earth Science > Oceans > Aquatic Sciences > Fisheries Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Acoustics Earth Science > Biosphere > Ecosystems > Marine Ecosystems > Pelagic Earth Science > Biosphere > Ecosystems > Marine Ecosystems Earth Science > Biosphere > Ecosystems > Marine Ecosystems > Benthic Earth Science > Biosphere > Ecosystems > Aquatic Ecosystems Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Bathymetry Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Seafloor Topography theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2020-01-09 publication 9.1 NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Earth Science Data and Information System https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/idn/gcmd-keywords Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.

Box 111 Strandpromenaden 50 Horten 3191 Norway contact@simrad.com resourceProvider Simrad EK60 singlebeam The Simrad EK60 Scientific Sounder system is a new generation fishery researchtool, based on experience from the EK500. The new electronic hardware is combined with up to date PC processing and Windows operation. The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system. GU1806_EK60 completed NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter Gunter 2013-04-09 creation Gordon Gunter (GU) The NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter primarily serves the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), assisting NMFS in accomplishing its responsibilities for conserving and managing our Nation's living marine resources. The ship's homeport is located at the NMFS Pascagoula Laboratory in Pascagoula, Mississippi. The Gordon Gunter operates primarily in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Atlantic Ocean, and Caribbean Sea. The ship conducts scientific surveys of the health and abundance of fishery resources and marine mammals. The vessel is operated by NOAA Marine and Aviation Operations.
