Equipment notes:

sidescansonar with all associated equipment

(1m x .3m x .3 m in size, 100 khz frequency, about 90 db output;

winch occupies a 2 m square foot print on deck.)

uniboom with all associated equipment

(a surface-towed sled, 1.5 m square, hand-deployed over the fantail,

1khz frequency, about 100 db output)

planktonnet:

(they consist of metal rings 0,5 or 1.0 meters in diameter

plus a 2-meter long mesh bag)

and associated sampling equipment rawinsonde system driftbuoy

boxcore: two box coring systems

(big blue which gives a 40 cm by 40 cm sample and

a standard nel box corer which gives a 20 cm by 30 cm sample) -

both weigh about 1500 lbs

sis1000:

chirp seismic-reflection profiler with all associated equipment

(eg-winch).

The chirp system (datasonics cap-6000)

fish weighs 300 lbs in air and is about 0.75 m long.

The lab consoles are two 9" racks, each about 22" high.

They weight about 100 lbs total.

The fish transmits a swept band from 1 to 10 khz

and has an output of about 200 db referenced to 1m.

bathymetry: depthsounder

planktonnet: planktontrawl

bathymetry: bathymetric and navigation equipment

tempsalinometer: seacats
