Resource lineage
- Statement
- Acoustic data were collected with a Simrad ES60 echo sounder, fitted with 120 kHz, 10-degree beam width transducer. The raw acoustic data were logged using the Simrad ES60 logging software Ver. 1.5.2.76 to a range of 250 m. Positional information was provided from an OmniLite 132 differential GPS unit. The data was collected following transects from the coastline to 1500m from the coastline. The sampling method resembled a “zigzag” pattern at 200m intervals. Vessel speed during collection was typically 6 kts.
