Brief description
This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Southern Surveyor cruise SS 07/93. This cruise took place in the Gulf of Carpentaria and Northern Queensland waters during 17 October - 29 November, under the leadership of John Salini. Biological data collected on this cruise include samples from bycatch reduction device (BRD) prawn trawls and from environmentally friendly net (EFN) trawls. Clear video images of bottom structure and fish behaviour in the EFN codend were obtained. Dredge samples of bottom flora and fauna from the EFN sites and benthos from the footrope and in the trawl nets were also recorded as an indicator of bottom structure. Tissue samples from L. malabaricus and L. sebae were obtained and fish samples for the I. S. R. Munro Fish Collection in Hobart. Queensland museum staff collected 75 species of sponge from 21 fish trawls and some from dredges. Leiognathids were also obtained from 3 prawn trawls in Shelburne Bay. 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. - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available (to CSIRO Staff) on-line.
