Averaged bottom temperature and dissolved oxygen in and around the Cape Canyon

Submarine canyons are internationally reported to enhance upwelling and heterogeneity. However, in South Africa such studies remain limited and thus a knowledge gap in regional submarine canyon dynamics still exists. To address this gap, the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment: Oceans and Coasts initiated a multi-disciplinary expedition onboard the RV Algoa (March 2016-2018) where oceanographic data, amongst other datasets, was collected within a 5x5 nautical mile distance. The benthic stations were linked to the associated mean bottom temperature and dissolved oxygen profiles.

Processed near-surface underway temperature and salinity (TSG) observations from the South African National Antarctic Expedition (SANAE) on the SA Agulhas II Voyage 005, December 2012

Here we present the 10-second resolution processed Thermosalinograph (TSG) data collected between 07 December 2012 and 19 February 2013, during the South African National Antarctic Expedition (SANAE) on the SA Agulhas II Voyage 005. A SeaBird SBE45 Thermosalinograph (TSG) is used to opportunistically collect underway near-surface temperature and conductivity measurements during research and monitoring cruises. Water is continuously pumped to the TSG from an intake located in the hull of the vessel, and the observations are continuously interfaced with navigational information. A temperature sensor close to the intake provides temperature measurements of the incoming water (T1). The temperature of the water inside the conductivity cell (T2) is used to accurately compute salinity (S) from the conductivity measurements (C). The South African National Antarctic Expedition (SANAE) is an annual cruise undertaken by the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (DFFE) to...

Processed CTD discrete observations from the Anchovy and Pilchard Recruitment Survey on the Africana Voyage 121, May 1994

Here we present processed Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) discrete data from the upcast collected between 03 May and 27 May 1994, during Voyage 121 on the FRS 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.

Processed CTD continuous observations from the Anchovy and Pilchard Recruitment Survey on the Africana Voyage 121, May 1994

Here we present processed downcast Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) continuous data collected between 03 May and 27 May 1994, during Voyage 121 on the FRS 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.

Processed CTD discrete observations from the student training and acoustic trials on the Africana Voyage 115, July 1993

Here we present processed Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) discrete data from the upcast collected between 13 July and 16 July 1993 during Voyage 115 on the FRS Africana, in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region 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.
