Processed XBT data from SANAE on SA Agulhas II Voyage 022, November 2016

The South African National Antarctic Expedition (SANAE) is an annual cruise undertaken by the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) to change the overwintering teams in Antarctica and to replenish the supplies at the SANAE IV Research base. This voyage was to deliver the SANAE 56 team to the island and return with the SANAE 55 team. The cruise was undertaken between 30 November 2016 and 07 February 2017 with a full scientific complement. This processed Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) data is from the SANAE oboard the SA Agulhas II voyage 022, between 30 November 2016 and 07 February 2017.

Processed Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) casts collected during the 2017 Marion Relief Voyage on SA Agulhas Voyage 024

The South African component of the international South Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation project (SAMOC-SA) aims to characterise the time-mean and time-varying components of the SAMOC in the South Atlantic Ocean and monitor the variability of the main Southern Ocean frontal systems associated with the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), south of Africa. The Crossroads monitoring line, directly under the altimetry track N198, is sampled annually during the Marion Relief voyages, using a combination of CTD stations and XBT casts, where the XBT casts are done, at set intervals, between CTD stations to complement the CTD data. Here we present 34 processed XBT casts collected along the Crossroads Transect, between 06 May 2017 and 11 May 2017, during the 2017 Marion Relief Voyage.
