Aquafin CRC Salmon Project - Process Study 1- Sediment Trap Survey - Huon Estuary - April 2005

Created 12/10/2024

Updated 12/10/2024

Process Study 1 was undertaken between 12-14 April 2005 in the Huon Estuary offshore from Hideaway Bay. During this Process Study, two sediment traps were deployed at each of two sites (near sites P3 and P4 from the spatial survey) on the bottom for 24 hours.Prior to the deployment of the traps surface sediment samples were collected with a benthic grab from each site. Each sediment trap consisted of three collection tubes, material from each tube was filtered on 47 mm GFF filters, with several filters required to filter all of the particualte matter from each tube. Combined filters from each of two tubes labeled A and B (typically 3 filters for each tube) were extracted for lipid analysis. Tube C was used either for isotopes or Fauna indent.
