RV Investigator Voyage IN2022_V03 Gravity Data

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

This record describes gravity data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2022_V03, "SOTS: Southern Ocean Time Series automated moorings for climate and carbon cycle studies southwest of Tasmania", which departed Hobart on the 4th May 2022 and returned to Hobart on the 15th May 2022 (AEST). The gravity meter instrument is a MicroG Lacoste Air-Sea II. Data are stored in .ENV and .DAT data files at CSIRO. The gravity meter was running for the duration of the voyage. There are 12 files totaling 184 MB of raw data in this dataset. A wharf tie was undertaken after the previous voyage (19 April 2022) and again after this voyage (15 May 2022) at the Hobart wharf using a Scintrex Autograv CG-5. Wharf tie data can be found in the "wharf_calibrations" folder which is stored with the raw data. An Excel spreadsheet detailing the wharf tie metadata and associated waterline measurements is also stored with the raw data. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report.
