Approximately 3500 of the best images from all BRUVS (TM) projects are stored in a reference library. Data recorded concern: - classification of the habitat in the field of view (topography, sediments, benthos) - the identity of fish and CAABCODES - their time of arrival - their behaviour (8 categories, including feeding on the bait) - their maturity (adult or juvenile) - their relative abundance (as MaxN = the maximum number visible at one time, or distinguishable at different times as separate individuals e.g. much larger/smaller, male/female) - the time elapsed before MaxN and feeding occurs. A custom interface has been developed by AIMS staff, using Microsoft Access, for reading and analysis of BRUVS(TM) tapes.Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: Tape reading protocols have been developed in a customised interface using Microsoft Access. The unique combination of a site and a Camera Number links all records in a series of tables in the relational database, allowing access to times that events occurred, together with reference images and reference video. The BRUVS (TM) were deployed about 350-400m apart with the prevailing wind to bracket the coordinate of each sampling site. In some instances, a stereo-video BRUVS (TM) was deployed first, followed by three or four BRUVS (TM) with single cameras. Each BRUVS (TM) consisted of a galvanized trestle-shaped frame enclosing a simple camera housing made from PVC pipe with acrylic front and rear ports. Mini-DV HandiCams with wide-angle lens adapters (0.6X) were used in the housings. Exposure was set to 'Auto', focus was set to Infinity/manual' and 'Standard Play' mode was selected to provide at least 45-60 minutes of filming at the seabed. Detachable bait arms (20 mm plastic conduit) had a 350 mm plastic mesh canister containing one kilogram of crushed oily sardines (Sardinops or Sardinella spp) as bait. BRUVS (TM) were deployed with 8 mm polypropylene ropes and polystyrene surface floats bearing a marker flag, and were retrieved with a hydraulic pot-hauler wheel. A scope length of 2 times water depth was used on the ropes.&rft.creator=Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) &rft.date=2024&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81922; southlimit=-22.09671; eastlimit=113.81922; northlimit=-22.09671&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81922; southlimit=-22.09671; eastlimit=113.81922; northlimit=-22.09671&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81588; southlimit=-22.10772; eastlimit=113.81588; northlimit=-22.10772&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81588; southlimit=-22.10772; eastlimit=113.81588; northlimit=-22.10772&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81133; southlimit=-22.11817; eastlimit=113.81133; northlimit=-22.11817&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.81133; southlimit=-22.11817; eastlimit=113.81133; northlimit=-22.11817&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57577; southlimit=-22.66468; eastlimit=113.57577; northlimit=-22.66468&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57577; southlimit=-22.66468; eastlimit=113.57577; northlimit=-22.66468&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57368; southlimit=-22.6759; eastlimit=113.57368; northlimit=-22.6759&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57368; southlimit=-22.6759; eastlimit=113.57368; northlimit=-22.6759&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57131; southlimit=-22.68614; eastlimit=113.57131; northlimit=-22.68614&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57131; southlimit=-22.68614; eastlimit=113.57131; northlimit=-22.68614&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55766; southlimit=-22.66798; eastlimit=113.55766; northlimit=-22.66798&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55766; southlimit=-22.66798; eastlimit=113.55766; northlimit=-22.66798&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55615; southlimit=-22.67547; eastlimit=113.55615; northlimit=-22.67547&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55615; southlimit=-22.67547; eastlimit=113.55615; northlimit=-22.67547&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55333; southlimit=-22.6849; eastlimit=113.55333; northlimit=-22.6849&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.55333; southlimit=-22.6849; eastlimit=113.55333; northlimit=-22.6849&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.65314; southlimit=-23.09813; eastlimit=113.65314; northlimit=-23.09813&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.65314; southlimit=-23.09813; eastlimit=113.65314; northlimit=-23.09813&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.64556; southlimit=-23.10765; eastlimit=113.64556; northlimit=-23.10765&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.64556; southlimit=-23.10765; eastlimit=113.64556; northlimit=-23.10765&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.63161; southlimit=-23.11156; eastlimit=113.63161; northlimit=-23.11156&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.63161; southlimit=-23.11156; eastlimit=113.63161; northlimit=-23.11156&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.577; southlimit=-23.09315; eastlimit=113.577; northlimit=-23.09315&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.577; southlimit=-23.09315; eastlimit=113.577; northlimit=-23.09315&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57425; southlimit=-23.08104; eastlimit=113.57425; northlimit=-23.08104&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57425; southlimit=-23.08104; eastlimit=113.57425; northlimit=-23.08104&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57986; southlimit=-23.10226; eastlimit=113.57986; northlimit=-23.10226&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.57986; southlimit=-23.10226; eastlimit=113.57986; northlimit=-23.10226&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.68005; southlimit=-23.10076; eastlimit=113.68005; northlimit=-23.10076&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.68005; southlimit=-23.10076; eastlimit=113.68005; northlimit=-23.10076&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.68089; southlimit=-23.0917; eastlimit=113.68089; northlimit=-23.0917&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.68089; southlimit=-23.0917; eastlimit=113.68089; northlimit=-23.0917&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.67991; southlimit=-23.08562; eastlimit=113.67991; northlimit=-23.08562&rft.coverage=westlimit=113.67991; southlimit=-23.08562; eastlimit=113.67991; northlimit=-23.08562&rft_rights= http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/au/&rft_rights=http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nc/3.0/au/88x31.png&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=License Graphic&rft_rights=Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Australia License&rft_rights=http://creativecommons.org/international/au/&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=License Text&rft_rights=Use Limitation: All AIMS data, products and services are provided as is and AIMS does not warrant their fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement.
