BIOMAPER-II environmental data from the acoustics data stream from RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer cruises NBP0103, NBP0104, NBP0202, and NBP0204 in the Southern Ocean from 2001-2002 (SOGLOBEC project) (NCEI Accession 0278190)

This dataset contains physical data collected on RVIB Nathaniel B. Palmer during cruises NBP0103, NBP0104, NBP0202, and NBP0204 in the South Atlantic Ocean, South Pacific Ocean, and Southern Ocean from 2001-04-29 to 2002-09-12. These data include potential temperature, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, sigma-theta, water pressure, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include BIo-Optical Multi-frequency Acoustical and Physical Environmental Recorder II. These data were collected by Dr Peter H. Wiebe of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as part of the "GLOBEC: Winter Distribution and Success of Southern Ocean Krill (Southern Ocean Krill)" and "U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean (SOGLOBEC)" projects and "U.S. GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-03-04.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

BIOMAPERII environmental data from acoustics data stream

Dataset Description:
Environmental Data Stream (CTD Plus)
A Component of the BIOMAPERII Data Acquisition System

These data are from the Environmental Sensing System (ESS) a component of the BIO-Optical Multi-frequency Acoustical and Physical Environmental Recorder (BIOMAPER II) 1 data acquisition system.

BIOMAPER II is a towed package consisting of a number of independent observational components: a multi-frequency sonar (Acoustics) system, a video plankton recorder (VPR) system, and an environmental sensor system (ESS). The incoming ESS environmental data is split into two data streams, one to be merged with the VPR data and one to be merged with the acoustics data. The reason being that there are times when either the Acoustic or VPR system may be turned off. Thus, there is a independent ESS data set to support either the Acoustic or VPR data streams.

The ESS data reported here are in support of the Acoustics data stream. See the data object "sv120data", 120 kHz acoustic backscatter data set.
