This record describes the End of Voyage archive from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2015_E02. This was a trial voyage for the RV Investigator departing Hobart (TAS) on April 7th and returning to Hobart on April 14th, 2015. The voyage objectives are a combination of specific aims for particular sampling gears and sample types - including conducting benthic biological sampling, the acquisition of high-quality data sets and fully-processed collections of specimens and samples - and to establish processes, safe procedures and workflows in particular areas of the vessel (e.g., working deck areas and sample processing laboratories).
Data collected includes: Sherman sled, Smith-McIntyre grab, Deep Towed Camera, USBL, Multibeam sonar, ADCP, SBP120 Sub-bottom Profiler, Corer, Deep BRUV lander, CSIRO Beam trawl, SST Radiometer, Atmospheric data (Absorption Photometer, Nephelometer, Ozone, Radon), Greenhouse (Picarro, Aerodyne), pCO2, Echosounders, Multibeam (EM122, EM710, ME70 and SBP120), and XBT.
The archive for the IN2015_E02 EOV data will be held temporarily within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere Data Centre in Hobart, with a permanent archive to be located at the CSIRO Data Access Portal (DAP, https://data.csiro.au/dap/). EOV paper documentation: Multibeam (EM122, ME70, EM710, SBP120) and XBT logs WERE archived c/o the Data Centre in Hobart and the location entered in the archiving system TRIM, reference "in2015_e02 Paper Documentation." The paper documentation was scanned and made available electronically. The EOV data, scanned logs and voyage documentation will be available to the O&A voyage participants via the local network.
