Acoustic data was collected as part of an acoustic-trawl effort to classify the midwater fish community of the region. The survey was conducted along 0.75 degree spaced transect lines from 66.5N to 73N between 168.5W and 156.8W. The primary water column acoustic instrument for the survey was a Simrad EK60 scientific echosounder equipped with a Simrad ES38B 38 kHz transducer and ES120-7C 120 kHz transducer. The ship departed Dutch Harbor, AK on 01 August 2019 and began the survey in the Chukchi Sea on 27 August 2019. The survey ended in Nome, AK on 01 October 2019. The echosounder was calibrated with a 38.1 mm tungsten-carbide sphere via the standard sphere method before and after the survey. This data set was collected as part of the acoustic-trawl survey effort of NOAA's Arctic IES component of the NPRB Arctic IERP program in order to quantify the distribution of pelagic fishes in the U.S. continental shelf region of the Chukchi Sea with a focus on Arctic gadids. 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.

Two sounder settings were used, a shallow setting (bottom depth < 250 meters) and deep setting (bottom depth > 250 meters) in order to sample the entirety of the water column. In shallow water data were collected at a pulse length of 0.512 milliseconds. In deep water data were collected at a pulse length of 4.096 milliseconds at 38 kHz and 1.024 milliseconds at 200 kHz. Both transceivers were operated at maximum ping rate except when in deep water and a slower ping rate was necessary to avoid bottom echo interference. GPS input was received from the vessel's primary system. Data were recorded and stored as Simrad EK60 formatted RAW files. The echosounder was calibrated with a 38.1 mm tungsten-carbide sphere via the standard sphere method before the survey on 21 July 2019 in Seattle, WA and again on 01 October 2019 after the survey in Dutch Harbor, AK. A text file (*.ecs) containing the parameters used to process both shallow and deep settings are provided.
