RV Investigator Voyage IN2015_C02 ADCP Data

This record describes the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2015_C02, titled: "Great Australian Bight (GAB) deep-water pelagic and benthic ecosystem study." The voyage took place between November 30 and December 22 departing Port Lincoln (SA) and returning to Fremantle (WA). Data was collected during in2015_c02 for the duration of the voyage. Data was collected using VMDAS and post-processed using CODAS. The OS75 unit was out of commission due to a fault, therefore only the OS150 was operational. The drop keel was at multiple depths (flush with hull/flush with gondola) throughout the voyage. The dataset was split along keel depths, processed individually, and the resulting netCDFs concatenated to create a single processed dataset. See the voyage computing and electronics report for more details regarding data acquisition. This dataset was processed and then archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart.
