4 CD-ROM Set

Prepared By:

These 4 CDs contain text, data, images, and video loops that represent the results of the ICES Workshop-at-Sea held on board the Research Vessels Johan Hjort and A.v.Humboldt in 1993.

These CDs are the result of a collaborative and persistent effort from the many participants of the Workshop.

CD #1

CD #1 contains most of the data which has been analyzed from the Workshop-At-Sea.

• Hydrography and environmental data, including CTD data, plant pigments, relative and surface light and meteorological data.


• Zooplankton biomass, species counts and length/weight information.


• Phytoplankton species counts including relative abundance information.


• Data collected from the Optical Plankton Counter.


• Pictures of the work at sea.


• A 20 minute video, Zooplankton Sampling, in MPEGI format.

CD #2

CD #2 contains selected acoustics files from the first portion of the cruise.

The acoustics files are available in four frequencies:

• 18 kHz


• 38 kHz (from both vessel-mounted and towed transducers)


• 120 kHz


• 200 kHz.

All the acoustics data from the Workshop would not fit on one CD-ROM.

CD#2 contains the 18 kHz and 200 kHz data as well as Matlab^® files and instructions about how to display the data using those files.

The Index of CD#2 will open automatically when the CD is in the drive from a PC running Windows.

CD #3

CD #3 contains more acoustics files from the first portion of the cruise.

CD#3 contains the 38 kHz, the towed body 38 kHz , and the 120 kHz data as well as Matlab^® files and instructions about how to display the data using those files.

The Index of CD#3 will open automatically when the CD is in the drive from a PC running Windows.

CD #4

CD#4 contains the same video available on CD#1, but in a different format.

The MPEG2 video streams on this CD need dedicated hardware for playback.

The company that converted the video, Fabelaktiv in Norway, recommends a RealMagic MPEG2 card.

MS Mediaplayer will not play the MPEG2 files without MPEG2 hardware.

The Index of CD#4 will open automatically when the CD is in the drive from a PC running Windows.
