Seawater temperature records for the UK Shelf - 16 - Cefas ScanFish - North & Celtic Seas
Description
This dataset has been extracted as part of an exercise to assemble "all" Cefas
Temperature Data and publish it in a Data paper. It is one of 17 Cefas data
sources assembled. ScanFish is a high performance towed undulating CTD which
was deployed by Cefas, initially, to aid the understanding of the coupling
between physical and biological processes (Brown et al., 1996). It was towed
behind the vessel at approximately 8 knots and undulated from the near surface
(~4m) to within a few meters (~5m) of the bed, down to water depths of 135m.
The vertical ascent rate was controlled so that each undulation covered a
horizontal distance of 1km, regardless of water depth.
