This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 2/84. This cruise took place in waters off the east coast of Tasmania, the waters around Tasmania, east Bass Strait and the west coast of Tasmania during 16 April - 13 May 1984, under the leadership of Steve Blaber and Brian Griffiths. Biological data collected on leg 1 of the cruise include demersal fish and larval fish samples from the core study area 10-12 nautical miles off Maria island at a depth of 430-580 m. About 42 species of fish were recorded of which 11 were selected for detailed study (see taxonomy keywords). Pelagic trawl samples included species of Brama brama and Macruronus novaezelandiae (Blue Grenadier). Mesopelagic fish samples included a large number of lantern and light fishes, particularly Lampanyctodes hectoris. Biological oceanography sampling across the shelf and slope was completed. Biological data collected on leg 2 of the cruise include larval fish and demersal fish samples from transects around Tasmania. Biological oceanography sampling for phytoplankton, zooplankton and nutrients were obtained. Blue grenadier samples were collected from the core area, the Bass Strait and west coast of Tasmania. Samples for electrophoresis were collected from the core area and the west coast.(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).
