This record describes the Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) data collected from the Marine National Facility RV Investigator voyage IN2019_V07, titled "RAN Hydrographic and Maritime Heritage Surveys." The voyage took place from Hobart (TAS) to Hobart between April 11 and April 23, 2019.
Data for 10 deployments were acquired using the Sea-Bird SBE911 CTD 23, fitted with 36 twelve litre bottles on the rosette sampler. Sea-Bird-supplied calibration factors were used to compute the pressures and preliminary conductivity values. CSIRO-supplied calibrations were applied to the temperature data. The data were subjected to automated QC to remove spikes and out-of-range values.
Casts 1, 2, and 3 were test casts to verify the recently serviced secondary altimeter data and no bottles were fired during those deployments.
A Wetlabs CSTAR Transmissometer, Wetlabs CDOM Fluorometer, and PAR sensor were also installed on the auxiliary A/D channels of the CTD.
The collected data were subsequently processed and archived within the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere (O&A) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset may be contained in the Voyage Summary and the CTD Data Processing Report.
