The Barcode of Life Data System (BOLD) is an informatics workbench aiding the acquisition, storage, analysis and publication of DNA barcode records. CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research (CMAR) contributes to this database, as of May 2008, it has contributed about 1000 species of fish, mostly from multiple samples, along with ~100 species of decapods and ~100 species of echinoderms (marine invertebrates). There is DNA data for a specific gene (COI). The collection of data includes GPS location, date, depth, who collected and identified sample, and some have photos. The samples used in providing the information to the Database from CMAR are housed at the Marine Laboratories in Hobart.

This dataset comprises the Multi-net plankton sampling collected during the SEA-MES program across four RV Investigator voyages (IN2023_V05, IN2024_V03, IN2024_V05, IN2025_V04). A total of 173 Multi-net operations were conducted, using 100 µm and 500 µm mesh nets to collect depth-stratified samples through the water column, capturing both day and night to assess diel vertical migration. The dataset includes 560 samples from 100 µm nets and 140 samples from 500 µm nets, providing information on zooplankton composition, biomass, and community structure, including 58,246 individuals from 105 genera and 70 families identified to date. These data provide a detailed view of pelagic biodiversity across the south-eastern continental shelf and upper slope of Australia.

This record is an entry for Biological Field Data Sheets from Southern Surveyor cruise SS 04/92. This cruise took place in waters off southern Tasmania during 3 November - 1 December 1992, under the leadership of Tony Koslow. Biological data collected on this cruise include demersal fish, micronekton and zooplankton samples to examine vertical distribution and diurnal movements. Dominant fish and zooplankton species to examine the diet through stomach content and stable isotope analyses. Estimates of zooplankton biomass, primary productivity and the concentration of chlorophyll-a at the trawl site and cross-slope transects. Flux of detritus estimates through the water column. Acoustic data of midslope fishes including target strength sampling in conjunction with net sampling. Please note: The Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available on-line. See the data link (below).
