Full description
Adult prawn species, size, sex, reproductive stage, moult stage, and parasites were measured at 20 stations in Albatross Bay, Gulf of Carpentaria. Sampling was carried out monthly, around the new moon period, between March 1986 and May 1992. The projects objectives were: - To carry out a trawl survey of prawn species distribution, size distribution, population density and reproductive status in the study area - To carry our sampling for larval prawns at selected stations. - To sample for phytoplankton species composition and chlorophyll a levels at selected stations.Lineage
