GIS Layer: Zooplankton Biomass in the Gulf of Carpentaria

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 24/06/2017

Data showing total zooplankton biomass (dry weight) from stepped oblique bottom to surface plankton tows for both the wet season and dry season in Albatross Bay. Biomass estimates from two mesh sizes. Nine cruises took place between 1975 and 1977 on chartered boats and the "Kalinda". Prawn larval biomass, prawn larval densities and total zooplankton were measured in several transects across the Gulf of Carpentaria.
