Description
June 28 to July 30, 2023, the RV Investigator voyage IN2023_V05 collected oceanographic and atmospheric data in the southeast Australian marine ecosystem. The archive includes raw data from instruments like ADCPs, CTDs, echosounders, greenhouse gas analyzers, and plankton samplers. Data is curated by CSIRO's National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre and archived at the CSIRO Data Access Portal.
Use Cases
Modeling ocean currents and water column properties based on ADCP and CTD data.
Analyzing marine ecosystem health and plankton community structure based on Continuous Plankton Recorder and eDNA samples.
Studying air-sea interactions and greenhouse gas fluxes based on Picarro analyzers and atmospheric sensor data.
Mapping seafloor topography and sub-bottom features based on Multibeam Echosounder and Sub-bottom Profiler data.
Investigating fish populations and biomass based on Fisheries Echosounder data and trawl samples.
Strengths
Data collected over a focused 33-day voyage in June-July 2023.
Archive includes raw data from over 30 distinct oceanographic and atmospheric instruments.
Permanent public archive is maintained at the CSIRO Data Access Portal.
