Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This record describes gravity data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2020_V09 (SOTS: Southern Ocean Time Series automated moorings for climate and carbon cycle studies southwest of Tasmania), which departed Hobart on the 27th August 2020 and returned to Hobart on the 12th September 2020. In addition to the tasks at the SOTS site the voyage also recovered a Rintoul mooring that was deployed during IN2020_V05. The gravity meter instrument is a MicroG Lacoste Air-Sea II. Data are stored in .ENV and .DAT data files at CSIRO. There are 16 files totalling 226 MB of raw data in this dataset. A wharf tie was not undertaken prior to this voyage. No data was acquired between 11:30 on 27/08/2020 and 00:03 on 31/08/2020 (UTC), due to rough weather conditions requiring the system to be turned off. No processing has been conducted on this data. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report.
