Full description
This record describes video and still camera data collected using sled-mounted and towed camera arrays as part of the 1993-1996 South East Fishery Ecosystem Study undertaken by CSIRO Division of Fisheries. Sled-mounted video and still cameras and/or Towed Camera Array (TACOS) tows were carried out at selected locations on transects across the continental shelf and in intensive survey areas in eastern Bass Strait, south-west Victoria, and south-west NSW waters. Data were collected in July 1993 (cruise SS 05/93), August 1994 (cruise SS 05/94) and November 1996 (cruise SS 06/96). The data from these camera surveys were used in conjunction with benthic sled samples, acoustic data and sediment samples to assess substrate types and provide information about benthic faunal assemblages of the region.Lineage
