This dataset contains the underway data collected during the Aurora Australis Voyage 5 2001-02. This voyage visited Casey, Prydz Bay and Mawson prior to returning to Hobart. Underway (meteorological, fluorometer, thermosalinograph and bathymetric) data are available online via the Australian Antarctic Division Data Centre web page (or via the Related URL section). For further information, see the Marine Science Support Data Quality Report at the Related URL section. During the course of the voyage, several illegal fishing vessels were encountered, as well as a Greenpeace vessel and ships of the Japanese whaling fleet. The Aurora Australis was also required to free the Polar Bird from sea ice in Prydz Bay.
