This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 5/80. This cruise took place in the North West Shelf, the West Australian north coast and the Timor Sea during 21 June - 26 July 1980, under the leadership of W. Okera. Biological data collected on this cruise include EK 50 and Simrad 1100 acoustic data and observation data from the Atlas Fischfinder. Samples and biological data of 23 species of Carangidae, 4 species of Scombridae, at least 8 species of Leiognathidae, 6 species of clupeoids, 3 species of Sphyraenidae, 1 species of Trichiuridae, 1 species of Parastromateidae and 6-7 species of sharks. Plankton samples for abundance estimates. Bottom sediment samples from 60 dredge tows for particle size analysis, for determination of organic content and small sediment samples stained with Rose Bengol for foraminiferan studies. Photographs of 356 specimens representing about 290 species of both demersal and pelagic fish these were also retained for further examination.(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.
