This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 2/85. This cruise took place in waters off Tasmania, Bass Strait and the Tasman Sea (Cascade Plateau area) during 23 March - 21 April 1985, under the leadership of Ron Thresher and Steve Blaber. Biological data collected on this cruise include ichthyoplankton samples and fish samples from demersal and pelagic trawling. Electrophoretic samples of blue grenadier. EK 400 acoustic data of the Cascade Plateau area. Samples of fish including Orange Roughy, Ocean Perch, Spiky Dory, Blue Grenadier and Deep Sea Trevalla from the plateau area and a basalt sample for geological analysis.(derived from the cruise report) - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available (to CSIRO Staff) on-line. See the details link under "Stored Media List" (below).

This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 1/85. This cruise took place in Tasmanian waters and the eastern Bass Strait, under the leadership of T. Kenchington and Jock Young. Biological data collected on this cruise include demersal fish samples from trawling. Blue grenadier was the dominant species by weight. Morphometric and electrophoretic samples of blue grenadier. Juvenile blue grenadier samples. Pelagic samples from trawling included large catches of the lantern fish Lampanyctodes hectoris. Samples from longlining included small numbers of Brama brama, Rexea solandri, blue shark (Prionace glauca) and two Mako sharks (isurus oxyrhynchus). Ichthyoplankton and phytoplankton samples. Bottom fish samples. Seabird counts throughout the cruise, with several unusual species being observed. A large volume of cephalopod and other invertebrate samples (for National Museum of Victoria). Morphometric and electrophoretic samples of Helicolenus (for the University of Tasmania). Photographs of demersal and midwater fish species for taxonomic studies. Algal and zooplankton samples for biomass and species composition.(derived from the cruise report) - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available (to CSIRO Staff) on-line.

This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 6/84. This cruise took place in eastern Bass Strait and Tasmanian waters during 25 November - 19 December 1984, under the leadership of Ron Thresher and Jock Young. Biological data collected on this cruise include demersal fish samples from trawling. Deep sea trevalla (Hyperoglyphe antarctica) was the dominant species by weight and blue grenadier (Macruronus novaezelandiae) had the third highest catch rate. Pelagic samples from trawling included catches of the lantern fish Lampanyctodes hectoris and large numbers of juvenile blue grenadier. Ichthyoplankton samples obtained from around Tasmania. Helicolenus samples for electrophoresis. Zooplankton biomass and species for taxonomy. A 3.8 m thresher shark (Alopius vulpinus) was taken in one deep tow. Samples from longlining include high numbers of Brama brama and one blue shark (Prionace glauca) weighing approximately 70 kg. Photography of the scattering layer at a depth of 300 m. 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.(derived from the cruise report) - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available (to CSIRO Staff) on-line.
