Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Oceanographic data collected during the EX1601 Transit and Mission Patch Test on NOAA Ship OKEANOS EXPLORER in the North Pacific Ocean from 2016-01-20 to 2016-02-07 (NCEI Accession 0145341)

Normal underway operations and mapping patch testing. Bathymetric mapping of either the Murray or Molokai Fracture Zones during the transit to Hawaii was planned, as allowed by equipment shakedown priorities and prevailing sea conditions. CTD casts were requested at strategic locations along the fracture zone. New equipment in need of shakedown testing included a new Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) antenna, a new Keyboard-Video-Monitor (KVM) system, new Doppler speed log, four new EK 60 single beam sonars, two new ADCPs, new digital file storage systems, and a newly installed Underway CTD.
