EK60 Data in Amundsen Sea, Antarctic in 2014

Acoustic survey was conducted to understand the variability of krill distribution along two representative ice shelves in the Amundsen Sea: Dotson ice shelf and Getz ice shelf.Acoustic data were collected from surface to 500-m depths using a scientific echo sounder (EK60, Simrad) configured with down-looking 38, 120, and 200 kHz split-beam transducers mounted in the hull of IBRV Araon. - To identify the horizontal and vertical distribution of krill from Dotson ice shelf to Getz ice shelf. - To reveal the main forcing that affects the variability of krill distribution,
