EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During SE0902L2

Description

Penguin Banks Acoustic Bottomfish Survey (SE0902L2, EK60). Narrow-band, split-beam acoustic data were collected using a Simrad EK60 system operating at 38, 70, and 120 kHz frequencies along predetermined transects to collect reverberation data from organisms in the watercolumn to be processed for echoes of economically important bottomfish.
