Brief description
This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Diamantina cruise Dm 1/60. This cruise took place in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Western Australian and in the Great Australian Bight during 2 February - 23 March 1960, under the leadership of A. Crooks & R. Davies. Biological data collected on this cruise include occurrence of diatoms and dinoflagellates from phytoplankton sampling stations. Zooplankton biomass from 200 m to the surface and 400 m to 200 m. Primary production rates from each 14 C station. Please note: This metadata record is a preliminary entry derived from information in the cruise report. Individual data types - which may span several cruises - will be indexed separately within this metadata system in due course.Lineage
