Preliminary processed CTD continuous observations from the Algoa Voyage 244, November 2017
SeaBird CTD Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column. During some cruises additional instruments for oxygen, fluorescence, Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR), Surface PAR (SPAR), turbidity, beam attenuation, beam transmission measurements were connected to the CTD unit. Here we present preliminary processed downcast CTD continuous data collected between 22 November 2017 and 27 November...

Processed imagery data collected off the western margin's deep-sea environment on Algoa Voyage 246, February 2018
The aim of the Integrated Ecosystem Program (IEP) Benthic Project is to establish a baseline for epi-benthic invertebrate distribution, in order to identify benthic indicators for long-term monitoring within the pre-determined IEP monitoring lines. Ten stations were successfully surveyed, on board the R/V Algoa in February 2018, using a towed under-water benthic camera. The acquired abundance data represents five stations from the Kleinsee transect, four from Namaqua and one from St Helena Bay.
