Japanese R/V Kairei Voyage KR16-05 XBT, XCTD Data

This record describes expendable bathythermograph (XBT) and expendable conductivity-temperature-depth profiler (XCTD) data collected on the Japanese deep-sea research vessel Kairei voyage KR16-LHR, titled '2016FY Acquisition of deep seismic, shallow sub-surface and seafloor bathymetry Survey Data for the Lord Howe Rise (MCS, OBS).' The vessel conducted marine scientific research in the Australian EEZ between 23 March and 11 May 2016.



The survey consisted of three legs:

Leg1: 23 March - 30 March, Brisbane (QLD) to Brisbane

Leg2: 2 April - 20 April, Brisbane to Brisbane

Leg3: 22 April - 11 May, Brisbane to Brisbane



A total of 1 XBT and 4 XCTD casts were conducted over the duration of this voyage:

XBT T05 / 20160324 / 180644 / 27o22.9720S / 162o26.4646E

XCTD CT2 / 20160402 / 224128 / 27o13.0832S / 155o33.4541E

XCTD CT2 / 20160408 / 120230 / 27o23.0842S / 161o34.4947E

XCTD CT2 / 20160415 / 022902 / 27o31.1244S / 160o10.1520E

XCTD CT2 / 20160425 / 023019 / 26o25.6134S / 161o14.2481E



Data are stored in ASCII and comma-separated files at CSIRO. Profile plots in PDF format are also part of the dataset.
