Full description
This dataset comprises tuna catch, hydrological and plankton data collected on Derwent Hunter Voyage DH 3/56. The voyage took place off the New South Wales coast in September-October 1956. Catches of southern bluefin, albacore and big-eye tuna were recorded and compared with hydrological station data and distribution of zooplankton (21 copepod and 2 salp species). Sea surface dynamic heights were also measured at 7 stations. The hydrology data are published in CSIRO's "Oceanographical Station List" series, and the cruise track and the biological data are given in Division of Fisheries & Oceanography Report no. 5.Lineage
Progress Code: completed
Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned
Statement: Processed data originate from sampling on Divisional research vessel. Hydrological processing according to standard CSIRO protocols of the time. Published data are presented as numeric values plus comments and graphical representations of water masses and zooplankton geographical distributions.
