The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n HB1303_leg01\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n completed\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA Ship Henry B.

The ship also observes weather, sea state, and other environmental conditions, conducts habitat assessments, and surveys marine mammal and marine bird populations.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n DOC/NOAA/OMAO/MOC-A > Marine Operations Center - Atlantic, NOAA Marine Operations, NOAA Office of Marine and Aviation Operations, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 757-441-6495\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA/OMAO/MOC-A\r\n \r\n \r\n 439 West York Street\r\n \r\n \r\n Norfolk\r\n \r\n \r\n VA\r\n \r\n \r\n 23510-1145\r\n \r\n \r\n USA\r\n \r\n \r\n David.A.Score@noaa.gov\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n https://www.omao.noaa.gov/omao/marine-operations-center-atlantic-moc\r\n \r\n \r\n Marine Operations Center - Atlantic\r\n \r\n \r\n NOAA Marine Operations Center-Atlantic (MOC-A) serves as a homeport for one NOAA survey ship and provides administrative, engineering, maintenance and logistical support to NOAA's Atlantic fleet.\r\n \r\n \r\n information\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n pointOfContact\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n DOC/NOAA/NMFS/NEFSC > Northeast Fisheries Science Center\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 508-495-2000\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n 166 Water Street\r\n \r\n \r\n Woods Hole\r\n \r\n \r\n MA\r\n \r\n \r\n 02543-1026\r\n \r\n \r\n USA\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n pointOfContact\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Simrad ME70 Echosounder\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n ME70\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Simrad - Kongsberg Maritime AS\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n +47 3303 4000\r\n (Norway)\r\n \r\n \r\n +47 3304 2987\r\n (Norway)\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n P.O.

The multibeam echo sounder combines the large and flexible sampling volume of\r\n the multibeam swath with the accuracy of the quantitative scientific echo sounder. A\r\n bathymetric option is also available to provide a high resolution seabed mapping\r\n capability, and the possibility to study the fish habitat.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Simrad EK60 Echosounder\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n EK60\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Simrad - Kongsberg Maritime AS\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n +47 3303 4000 (Norway)\r\n \r\n \r\n +47 3304 2987 (Norway)\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n P.O.

The new electronic hardware is combined with up to date PC processing and Windows operation. The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system.\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n","source_transform":{"@type":"dcat:Dataset","accessLevel":"non-public","contactPoint":{"@type":"vcard:Contact","fn":"NEFSC","hasEmail":"mailto:debra.palka@noaa.gov"},"describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"The AMAPPS survey will primarily focus on beaked whale species, with the following objectives: 1) Develop a better understanding of beaked whale habitat use and site fidelity for abundance and monitoring of critical areas, 2) Quantify efficacy of passive acoustic monitoring for detection and abundance of these species, through controlled methodological tests and in comparison to a bottom-mounted recorders (AMAR), 3) Determine the distribution and relative abundance of plankton and prey species, 4) When possible, collect identification photographs and biopsy samples.","distribution":[{"@type":"dcat:Distribution","describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"Interactive map viewer to allow discovery and access to water column sonar data","downloadURL":"http://maps.ngdc.noaa.gov/viewers/water_column_sonar/","mediaType":"placeholder/value","title":"Water Column Sonar Data Map Viewer"},{"@type":"dcat:Distribution","describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
