Instrument: Isaacs-Kidd Midwater Trawl

Acronym: IKMT

External Identifier: skos:closeMatch: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/NETT0071/

Description

A trawl with a pentagonal mouth opening and a dihedral depressor vane as part of the mouth opening. IKMTs come in various dimensions (refer to individual dataset documentation). The original IKMTs were 10 foot (304 cm) and 15 foot (457 cm) at the mouth. The 10 foot IKMT net was 31 feet (9.45 m) in length (Wiebe and Benfield 2003).
