This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Southern Surveyor cruise SS 01/92. This cruise took place in waters off southern Tasmania during 4-25 February 1992, under the leadership of Tony Koslow. Biological data collected on this cruise include acoustic data from the Maatsuyker-Pedra Branca fishing ground south of Tasmania. Target strength measurements on aggregations of orange roughy and deepwater oreosomatids. Zooplankton, midwater and demersal fish/invertebrates day/night vertical distribution data. Midwater and demersal specimens for dietary studies. Samples from trawls, plankton net catches and from the particulate matter from niskin samples for stable-isotope analysis. 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.
