Description
Summary:Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Data source: original field data. Data processing by CMAR Data Acquisition and Processing group. A number of discrepancies between the port and starboard air temperature and humidity sensors were noted. A number of rapid temperature increases were noted for both port and starboard temperature sensors. The depth data was re-picked using Sonar Data's Echoview software. A conductivity lag correction factor was used as part of TSG calibration. There are no MaxWindGust values for the voyage due to a TECHSAS software bug. A discrepancy between foremast and main mast rain sensors was noted. See processing report for full details. Credit Underway data processing by A. Sarraf (CMAR). This dataset contains the Underway (UWY) data collected on Southern Surveyor voyage SS2010_v02.The voyage took place in the Southern Ocean, 15th - 24th Mar 2010. This dataset will be processed and archived within the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research Data Centre in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the cruise report for this voyage and/or the data processing report. The standard Underway (=continuously recorded) dataset from a research voyage includes Navigation (NAV), Sounder, Thermosalinograph (TSG) and Meteorological (MET) data. NAV data includes GPS (Global Positioning System) measurements of latitude, longitude, ship's direction and speed. MET data includes atmospheric temperature, humidity and pressure, wind speed and direction, and incident radiation intensity. Data are recorded at 5 second intervals.
