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.
The RV Cefas Endeavour has been routinely deploying Multibeam acoustic
measurement techniques since 2005, with particular emphasis being placed on
habitat mapping projects (Brown and Vanstaen, 2008). As part of the
calibration of the various acoustic systems, a CTD cast is performed at
relevant stations to provide temperature data for the necessary calculation of
sound velocity. The CTD used is a SAIV A/S SD204. Acoustic calibration data
are stored along with the acoustic data, allowing temperature data to be
extracted for this paper.
