Full description
This record describes the Carthe Drifter data from the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator voyage IN2023_V06, titled "Understanding Eddy Interactions and Their Impacts in the East Australian Current System." The voyage took place between October 9, 2023 and November 2, 2023 (AEST), departing from Sydney and returning to Sydney. Four carthe drifters were deployed near the Solitary and Richmond Canyons to characterise near-surface circulation associated with the East Australian Current. Drifter trajectories captured the strength and variability of surface flow and cross-shelf transport, providing Lagrangian observations of EAC-driven circulation and its influence on shelf–slope exchange.Lineage
