Abstract	The SEAmester and Agulhas System Climate Array (ASCA) Scientific Cruise was conducted on the SA Agulhas II Voyage 058 from 19 June 2023 to 29 June 2023. 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 took place each day at 10am and 4pm for student training.
