In 2001, the RVIB NB Palmer and RVIB LM Gould were upgraded to collect a full suite of data needed for full single-ping editing (i.e. processing single pings to ocean velocities). LMG0103, LMG0104, and LMG0106 were collected before the new system was implemented. The single ping data from these cruises can only be used as an aid for looking at amplitude (backscatter). NBP0103, NBP0104, NBP0202, NBP0204, LMG0201A, LMG0203, LMG0205, and LMG0302 datasets contain the complete set of data needed for processing the single ping data.

Quality
\n
The following datasets have been processed and represent fairly accurate results. However, these datasets may undergo additional editing. The user is therefore cautioned that the files listed here for download may not be the final datasets.
\n
If you would like to be notified when updated versions are available, email Susan Howard and you will be put on a list. Otherwise, please check back for updates. Notes on the quality of each data set are included in the downloads.
\n
Format
\n
The datasets have been created using MATLAB. They are converted to ASCII before serving using the JGOFS data management system. The files are also available for download in their original, zipped form. Each *.zip file contains a *.mat file and a readme.txt file. See the URL below for access to the orginal Matlab files.
\n
Single Ping Data
\n
Single ping data from all cruises have been archived, but are not yet available for distribution by ESR.
\n
