Raw SDS data from the Winter Shakedown Cruise on SA Agulhas II Voyage 003, July 2012

This is raw Scientific Data System (SDS) data from the Winter Shakedown Cruise on SA Agulhas II, Voyage 003, 9 July to 6 August, 2012. The cruise started in Cape Town and went down to the GoodHope Line then up to the Prince Edward Islands, on to Port Elizabeth and then back to Cape Town. After the arrival of SA Agulhas II back to South Africa, an inaugural Southern Ocean cruise was undertaken, which included a multidisciplinary program to measure oceanographic and biological parameters that characterise the state of the Southern Ocean in the region of interest to South Africa, along with the ecosystem properties of the major gyres, frontal systems and shelf and plateau areas. Additionally, land-based research on marine mammals and seabirds was undertaken at South Africa’s Prince Edward Islands (PEIs). The aim of the cruise was to test the research vessels capability and its equipment and to increase our understanding with regard to the influences of oceanographic conditions...

SEAmester and Agulhas System Climate Array (ASCA) Scientific Cruise on the SA Agulhas II Voyage 052, June 2022

The SEAmester and Agulhas System Climate Array (ASCA) Scientific Cruise was conducted on the SA Agulhas II Voyage 052 from 27 June to 08 July 2022. The cruise operated from Cape Town to the ASCA transect (~ 34° S) off Hamburg in the Eastern Cape, South West Indian Ocean. The objective of the SEAmester cruise was to undertake the ASCA transect across the Agulhas Current and sample the 20 CTD stations done previously. In addition, SEAmester shallow (200 m) CTD training stations would take place each day at 10am and 4pm for the students. Due to the change of plans requested of the SEAmester team to undertake a medical evacuation at Marion Island, the science team opted to instead study a trapped lee-edge cyclonic eddy formed due to an early retroflection of the Agulhas Current. The timing of the cruise provided a unique opportunity to study a phenomena rarely occurring, and the placement allowed the vessel to be positioned closer to Marion Island when weather allowed for the medical...

The cruise included deployment of expendable bathythermographs underway, deployment of four autonomous robotics instruments at two stations (2 wavegliders and 2 buoyancy gliders, per station), and the deployment of two Argo floats. One CTD for instrument calibration and verification was deployed at each glider station. The transect commenced to the Marginal Ice Zone for sample collection of sea ice and biological community composition in this region. This collection includes raw Thermosalinograph (TSG) data from S.A Agulhas II, Voyage 020A (AGU020A) that took place between 15 July 2016 and 29 July 2016.

Processed Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) casts collected during the 2016 Marion Relief Voyage on SA Agulhas Voyage 019

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 29 processed XBT casts collected along the Crossroads Transect, between 08 May 2016 and 12 May 2016, during the 2016 Marion Relief Voyage.
