Descrizione

Multibeam echosounder time series of water column backscatter. The dataset consist of 9 text files (N°line_N°beam) extracted from raw data file (.wcd): L00_beam_117.txt (from 0000_20190603_122932.wcd) L01_beam_99.txt (from 0001_20190603_123254.wcd) L02_beam_125.txt (from 0002_20190603_123922.wcd) L03_beam_128.txt (from 0003_20190603_124334.wcd) L04_beam_230.txt (from 0004_20190603_124731.wcd) L05_beam_132.txt (from 0005_20190603_124906.wcd) L06_beam_117.txt (from 0006_20190603_124952.wcd) L07_beam_85.txt (from 0007_20190603_125024.wcd) L08_beam_213.txt (from 0008_20190603_125229.wcd) The raw data were collected with the right head of Kongsberg EM2040DC multibeam echosounder with the Seapath 300 positioning system and Trimble RTK correction. Multibeam echosounder time series of water column backscatter datasets extracted using FM Midwater v7.8.4 for the beam that intersected the path of the sinking marine litter piece in the water column. Every choice of intersection was done manually for the beam that had the highest visible backscatter amplitude for the sinking marine litter and as little noise as possible. Exporting in FM Midwater included all available export settings, including 'ship position', beam attribute' and 'ping info'. The "Deliverable marGnet_D3.2.1_Report_on_the experiment_results" of the marGnet Project describes in detail the experiment carried out in the framework of the marGnet project with the aim of estimating the sinking velocity of different types of marine litter.
