Cephalopods were sampled from a cyclonic cold-core eddy in the western Tasman Sea, using midwater trawls from 10th to 12th September 2017 during a research voyage on Australia's Marine National Facility RV Investigator. Two different types of trawl equipment were used. The first trawl type sampled the upper 100 m of the eddy using a Danish pelagic trawl with 300 μm mesh, towed at approximately 1 m/s (2 knots) for 60 min per trawl (n= 9). The second trawl type was an International Young Gadoid Pelagic Trawl (IYGPT) fitted with a MIDwater Open and Closing net system with six distinct codends to enable depth stratified sampling. The IYGPT trawl has a mesh size of 200 mm reducing to 10 mm, and the codend mesh size was 500 μm. The IYGPT trawl was lowered to 500 m, with the first codend sampling obliquely from the surface to 500 m, and each subsequent codend sampled 100 m depth intervals for approximately 20 min each at 1 m/s, as the trawl returned to the surface.

The CSIRO O&A Catch Operations data set currently includes information on samples collected between 1965 and 2005 during voyages of various CSIRO research vessels. The data includes information about the time, location depth and catch method (trawl net etc) for each operation, metrics of catch (weight composition etc) and species and specimen details. Individual metadata records have been created for each research voyage. The data are held in the CSIRO Oceand and Atmosphere Data Warehouse, which currently holds over 13,000 catch operation records from more than 200 voyages.
This is a biological overview of data collected on Southern Surveyor voyage SS 09/2004. The voyage took place off the east coast of Queensland in September 2004. This dataset will be processed and archived within the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research Data Centre in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the cruise report for this voyage and/or the data processing report. For micronekton and zooplankton prey data contact Jock Young, acoustic biomass data was collected and stored by Rudy Kloser. The Phytoplankton biomass and speciation was processed by Lesley Clementson. The Stomach content data is in an ACCESS database, contact Jock Young. Mark Lewis has video from voyage and photographs of deck shots & equipment used during the voyage.
This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Diamantina cruise Dm 1/62. This cruise took place in the northeast Indian Ocean, Banda Sea and Java Sea during 12 February to 25 March 1962, under the leadership of B. Newell & D. Rochford. Biological data collected on this cruise include primary production rates; organisms with/without chlorophyll, total particles and occurrence of dinoflagellates from phytoplankton stations; pigment samples; and zooplankton biomass. Please note: This metadata record is a preliminary entry derived from information in the cruise report. Individual data types - which may span several cruises - will be indexed separately within this metadata system in due course.
This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Diamantina cruise Dm 1/60. This cruise took place in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Western Australian and in the Great Australian Bight during 2 February - 23 March 1960, under the leadership of A. Crooks & R. Davies. Biological data collected on this cruise include occurrence of diatoms and dinoflagellates from phytoplankton sampling stations. Zooplankton biomass from 200 m to the surface and 400 m to 200 m. Primary production rates from each 14 C station. Please note: This metadata record is a preliminary entry derived from information in the cruise report. Individual data types - which may span several cruises - will be indexed separately within this metadata system in due course.
