Specifically, during each cruise, transducers will be installed on a rigid pole mounted to the side of the ship, and calibrated at sea for operating conditions following protocols developed by Dr. Boswell during the ONSAP/DAP cruises. The dynamics of the mesopelagic scattering community will be examined through the depth dependent scattering responses at both frequencies (18 and 38kHz) as well as through the difference between the mean volume backscattering strength (MVBS; in dB) at 18 kHz and 38 kHz (dMVBS(18-38)). In addition, scatterers in the upper water column (~150m) will be examined by analyzing the all four available frequencies.

The new electronic hardware is combined with up to date PC processing and Windows operation. The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system.
