RV Investigator Voyage IN2018_T02 Processed ADCP Data

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This record describes the Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2018_T02, titled: "Harmful Algal Blooms and their long term sediment record in East Coast Tasmanian waters." The voyage took place between May 14 and May 21, 2018 departing from Brisbane (QLD) and arriving in Hobart (TAS). Only the RDI Ocean Surveyor 75kHz ADCP was operational during this voyage. The system was turned off mid-voyage while the multi-beam instruments were being used to locate wrecks off Sydney Harbour. The RDI Ocean Surveyor 150kHz ADCP was out of service, being replaced by a WorkHorse Quartermaster 150kHz ADCP for the duration of the voyage. Internal triggering was used as external triggering was found to be unstable on previous voyages. The drop keels were typically used at flush with Gondola (2m). 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.
