Brief description
Monthly cruises were carried out between March 1986 and April 1992, at forty three stations in Albatross Bay, Gulf of Carpentaria. Salinity-temperature profiles were recorded at all larval [zooplankton] sampling stations using a submersible data logger (CSIRO/Yeo-Kal SDL®). The SDL was deployed by dropping to the bottom, and retrieving slowly such that the temperature, salinity and depth were recorded approximately every 1-2 metres. The data have been processed to remove the spurious records at the start (before logger entered the water) and end (after removal from the water) of the profile.Lineage
