The vessel transited to the southern end of the WOCE/CLIVAAR SR3 transect, along nominally 140E. On the way south, the continuous plankton recorder (CPR) was deployed and several test casts were carried out.We reached the edge of the sea ice at 64 40'S, over the continental slope (water depth of 3000 m), about 6 days after leaving Hobart. We were able to make good progress through rapidly growing first year ice and reached the southernmost station on March 28, in 300 m of water over the continental shelf. We parked in the less of some grounded icebergs to wait for strong winds to abate overnight. The winds dropped off just when we needed them to, and we were able to complete all 9 stations in the sea ice. The lack of wind meant that we could comfortably do deep CTD stations in small holes, either in the lee of icebergs or cut by steaming the ship in small circles. If there had been any wind, it would have been very difficult to complete the southern stations. Having experienced ice pilots on the bridge helped us complete the work in the sea ice very efficiently.We then worked out way north along the transect. The weather continued to be remarkably good. We only lost time to weather once, when winds peaked at over 60 knots and we lost a total of about 36 hours. Otherwise, the section was completed with few problems. The observations collected during the voyage are summarised below. We finished the transect on the evening of March 15 without missing a station and returned to Hobart on March 17, two days early.We completed all the voyage objectives as well as a few additional stations, including trace metal sampling near an iceberg using both the trace metal rosette and the Fast Rescue Craft (FRC).Progress Code: completedStatement: The data have been acquired at 0.1 Hz.

Full description

This dataset contains the underway data collected during the Aurora Australis Voyage V6 2007/08.

Voyage Objectives : CASO marine science
Leader: Dr. Steve Rintoul
Deputy Leader: Mr. Andrew Deep

Undertake marine science as part of the CASO program.

Underway (meteorological) data are available online via the Australian Antarctic Division Data Centre web page (or via the Related URL section).

From the voyage leader's report:

Aurora Australis left Hobart on March 22, 2008. The vessel transited to the southern end of the WOCE/CLIVAAR SR3 transect, along nominally 140E. On the way south, the continuous plankton recorder (CPR) was deployed and several test casts were carried out.

We reached the edge of the sea ice at 64 40'S, over the continental slope (water depth of 3000 m), about 6 days after leaving Hobart. We were able to make good progress through rapidly growing first year ice and reached the southernmost station on March 28, in 300 m of water over the continental shelf. We parked in the less of some grounded icebergs to wait for strong winds to abate overnight. The winds dropped off just when we needed them to, and we were able to complete all 9 stations in the sea ice. The lack of wind meant that we could comfortably do deep CTD stations in small holes, either in the lee of icebergs or cut by steaming the ship in small circles. If there had been any wind, it would have been very difficult to complete the southern stations. Having experienced ice pilots on the bridge helped us complete the work in the sea ice very efficiently.

We then worked out way north along the transect. The weather continued to be remarkably good. We only lost time to weather once, when winds peaked at over 60 knots and we lost a total of about 36 hours. Otherwise, the section was completed with few problems. The observations collected during the voyage are summarised below. We finished the transect on the evening of March 15 without missing a station and returned to Hobart on March 17, two days early.

We completed all the voyage objectives as well as a few additional stations, including trace metal sampling near an iceberg using both the trace metal rosette and the Fast Rescue Craft (FRC).
