Raw acoustic data collected by an EK60 echosounder at South Georgia Island on board the RRS James Clark Ross cruise JR19001 (10 December 2019)

Acoustic backscatter data were collected on board the RRS James Clark Ross during cruise JR19001 on 10/12/2019 in Stromness Harbour and South Georgia.

Data were collected using a Simrad EK60 echosounder at 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz. The EK60 was calibrated on 09/12/2019 in Stromness Harbour, South Georgia. More information about the calibration can be found in the Cruise Report for JR19001.

This work was carried in the frame of the Polar Ocean Ecosystem TimeSeries - Western Core Box (POETS-WCB) project.
