EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During MF0904

Description

2009 Sardine Acoustic Survey. The Simrad EK60 depth sounder was operated, at 18, 38, 120, and 200 kHz and interfaced to a data acquisition system to estimate micronekton and preliminary estimates of small pelagic fish relative biomass between 0 and 250 m.
