Raw acoustic data collected by an EK80 echosounder at King George Island on board the RRS Sir David Attenborough cruise SD025 (25 February 2023)

Acoustic backscatter data were collected on board the RRS Sir David Attenborough during polar science trials 2023 (cruise SD025) on 25/02/2023 in Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Antarctica.

Data were collected using a Simrad EK80 echosounder at 18, 38, 70, 120, 200 and 333 kHz. The EK80 was calibrated on 10/03/2023 in the Weddell Sea.
