The Agulhas Eddy-Filament Interactions were conducted on the Africana Voyage 138 from 19 December to 24 December 1996. The objectives of the cruise were to characterise the Agulhas water observed off Cape Town in satellite imagery; to characterise the associated Agulhas Current leakage between the Agulhas intrusion and the shelf; to identify the cooler Agulhas Bank water associated with the intrusion, and to characterize their interaction; and to identify the plankton associated with the various components of the intrusion and shelf circulation.
Here we present processed Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) discrete data from the downcast collected between 19 December and 24 December 1996 during voyage 138 on the Africana in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) on the west coast of Southern Africa. Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 CTD instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000.
