This record describes the End of Voyage archive from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator voyage IN2015_V01 titled "IMOS Southern Ocean Time Series Automated Moorings for Climate and Carbon Cycle Studies Southwest of Tasmania". This was the first research voyage for the RV Investigator. The voyage took place between the 21st and the 30th of March, 2015 (local time) departing from Hobart and sailing to the south-west of Tasmania (47 S, 142 E) and returning to Hobart.\n\nRoutine data collected included Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) (75, 150 KHz), Underway (UWY), SST Radiometer, CTD, Hydrology, Atmospheric data including aerosol properties, particulates and composition, ozone and radon, Greenhouse gases data, Underway pCO2, Echosounders (38, 70, 120, 200, 333 KHz), Multibeam (EM122, EM710, ME70 and SBP120) and XBT. \n\nAdditional atmospheric instruments used on this voyage included two Condensation Particle Counters (CPC), Time of Flight Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ToF-ACSM), Cloud Radar BASTA 95GHz, Cloud Condensation Nuclei Counter (CCN), Long Scanning Mobility Particle Size (longSMPS), Nano Scanning Mobility Particle Size (nanoSMPS), Old Scanning Mobility Particle Size (Old SMPS), Neutral Cluster Air Ion Spectrometer (NAIS), Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometer (PTR-MS), Volatile Organic Chemical Sequencer (VOC) and Mercury Vapour Analyser (Tekran unit).\n\nThree CTD casts to 2250m with temperature, salinity, oxygen, phytoplankton fluorescence, particle backscatter, and beam attenuation sensors were sampled at 24 depths for the analyses of nutrients, salinity, Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (DIC), alkalinity and dissolved oxygen. The top 6 depths (to 150m) were also analysed for particulate organic carbon and pigments.\n\nAdditional underway samples were collected for particulate organic carbon, biogenic silica, spectroscopic and pigment analyses. \n\nThe towed undulating CTD (TRIAXUS) with the ECO Triplet optical sensor, Laser Optical Plankton Counter (LOPC) and the newly ...
