Code Dataset Name Description
ADCP Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler
CPR Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR) tows The CPR is a self-contained mechanical automatic sampler towed 100 m behind the ship at about 10 m depth, trapping plankton and other small biota.
CTD CTD Cast Data CTD is an acronym for Conductivity-Temperature-Depth. It measures the salinity, temperature, depth in a vertical profile from the surface. The longest casts can exceed 4000 metres.
CTD_BOTTLE CTD Bottle Data
DMS_DMSP DMS and DMSP Data DMS is Dimethyl sulfide and is a breakdown product of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP). Emission occurs over the oceans by phytoplankton.
FISH Fish catch Fish are caught via RMT or similar nets
FLOW_CYTOMETRY Flow Cytometry Data
IGR Instantaneous Growth Rate Experiments
KRILL Krill specimens taken
KRILL_SWARM Krill Swarm Data
MIXED_LAYER Mixed Layer Data
PARTICULATE CTD Bottle Chemistry Data Chemical data such as Phosphorus is measured from water samples taken from bottles attached to the CTD frame.
PHYTO Phytoplankton Samples
RMT_CTD RMT CTD Data CTD instrument is attached to a Rectangular Midwater Trawl (RMT) net
SIP Sea Ice Photography Images are stored in the Aerial Photograph Catalogue - see Aerial Photography Series to chose the particular voyage collection.
UNDERWAY Underway Data Data logged from various sensors (weather, sea) etc on the ship. Typically recorded every 10 seconds for the entire voyage.
VISCOSITY Viscosity Data
WHALE Whale Survey Data typically taken from dedicated and specific cetacean surveys where a strict observation methodology is followed.
WHALE_ACOUSTICS Whale Acoustic Data
WOV Wildlife at Sea observations Observations of seabirds typically taken every daylight hour. Incidental observations of seals and whales are also recorded.
XCTD XCTD Data
