Full description

Primary production estimates were made using the uptake of radioactive carbon during a series of 27 research voyages from the naval frigates "Diamantina" and "Gascoyne" in the period 1959-1965. A variety of in-situ and simulated in-situ incubation techniques were used to produce the data sets. The data have been extracted from the CSIRO Division of Fisheries and Oceanography Oceanographical Cruise Reports and collated into an excel spreadsheet. The excel file has a series of Worksheets in it, with each worksheet containing information relevant to the data set. These worksheets list the research voyages included in the data set, the methods used to measure primary production on each cruise, station data, and the data arranged for mapping. In additional worksheets, the data has been shortened by depth, incubation period, and a real hourly and daily primary production. The data set is about 1.3 MB, and many of the stations included have zooplankton biomass data in the zooplankton file. This data has been produced by CSIRO for the National Oceans Office, as part of an ongoing commitment to natural resource planning and management through the 'National Marine Bioregionalisation' project.
