Figure 7.7. Spatial distribution of the near-suface turbidity [NTU] during cruise 0671013-1 obtained from 
the flow-through ECO sensor and displayed as 30 min averages. Colours denote turbidity in the range 
0- 3.5 NTU, individual values are highlighted every 12 hours.

Perfomance of the Vessel-Mounted Acoustic Doppler Current 
Profiler 
A vessel-mounted Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (VMADCP) was used for continuous re- 
sording of single ping velocity data in the water column. The instrument is of type Teledyne 
RD Instruments (TRDI) Ocean Surveyor (OS) operating at 150 kHz with a flat phased-array 
transducer mounted in the hull of the ship. Since the VMADCP does not have any further built- 
in sensors, additional data on heading and tilt were obtained from the ship's Hydrins system. 
Data recording was carried out with the TRDI VmDas software, version 1.50.19. Characteristic 
parameters of the device installed on RV ATAIR are listed in Table 7.2.
