Data Trawler - Survey Details

SS 02/2008 (alternative identifier: SS200802)    - is a Marine National Facility voyage

Period: 2008-02-04 00:00 to 2008-02-26 00:00 UTC

Duration: 22.00 days

From: Hobart To: Port Adelaide

Region: Bonney Coast, Kangaroo Island, South Australia

Ship: Southern Surveyor [details]

Description: The role of submarine canyons in upwelling, sediment transport, and productivity hotspots off the Bonney Coast and Kangaroo Islands, South Australia.
Voyage Objectives
Upwelling will occur within canyons that are exposed to westward slope currents and be largest where ware core eddies are found. Two canyon systems that periodically exhibit upwelling will be surveyed during the voyage. an unnamed canyon system off the Bonney Coast is our principal area of interest, and will be surveyed first, but if time permits, a second canyon system, off the southeast tip of Kangaroo Island, will also be surveyed. The first two weeks in February is generally a period of coastal upwelling so it is also likely that such an event will be captured during the cruise but this is not essential to the canyon study. A broad-scale mapping survey suing swath, acoustics and ADCP will be conducted at each target area to obtain high-resolution bathymetry and a synoptic picture of the canyon and coastal upwelling. Following the mapping a series of transects along and to each side of the canyon axis will be established. Stations occupied along transects will be sampled with a CTD, lowered ADCP, grab, dredge and trawl.
