EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During FK140216

Description

Kona Integrated Ecosystem Assessment Survey (FK140216, EK60). The cruise accomplished the following objectives: marine mammal observations from both the R/V Falkor and the rigid hull inflatable boat along four transects. Collection of photographs from each marine mammal sighting for further identification and individual tracking. Eight EK60 acoustic transects were completed encompassing day and night variation. Nine DIDSON with an attach CTD casts were done along with five additional CTD only casts at specified stations.
