Brief description
These data were collected during the BROKE-West voyage of the 2005-2006 season.They are numbers of krill larvae per cubic metre of water at each of the stations at which data were collected. The data cover three species of Antarctic krill - Euphausia crystallorophias, Euphausia superba and Thysanoessa macrura.
The superba data have been published in the Kawaguchi et al paper, "Krill demography and large-scale distribution in the Western Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean (CCAMLR Division 58.4.2) in Austral summer of 2006". The data for the other species will be presented in a forthcoming paper by Kerrie Swadling.
This work was completed as part of ASAC projects 2655 and 2679 (ASAC_2655, ASAC_2679).
