Brief description
This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Southern Surveyor cruise SS 11/95, a part of the JGOFS Southern Ocean Processes study. This cruise took place in the Southern Ocean during 15 November - 7 December 1995, under the leadership of Bronte Tilbrook. Biological data include measurements of in-situ optical properties, including spectral absorption and upwelling and down-welling spectral irradiance in different water masses west of Tasmania. DMS, and DMSP measurements. Dissolved and particulate organic carbon and isotopic composition. Radon measurements, zooplankton and larval fish abundance, nekton biomass estimates using both midwater trawls and acoustic backscatter measurements. Atmospheric chemistry and cloud measurements were also undertaken as part of the ACE-1 International Global Atmospheric Chemistry project. Please note: This metadata record is a preliminary entry derived from information in the cruise plan and/or cruise report. Individual data types - which may span several cruises - will be indexed separately within this metadata system in due course.Lineage
