Surveys of deep water benthic fish and elasmobranchs using stereo-BRUVS in Ningaloo Marine Park, Western Australia (WAMSI Node 3 Project 1 Subproject 3.1.1)

Created 24/06/2017

Updated 09/10/2017

This field survey was planned around the outcomes of the towed video and acoustic survey undertaken by AIMS staff and FUGRO in April of 2006. The towed video and acoustic survey provided information on the distribution of benthic habitats in the area between the 15 and 100 m depth contours and allowed us to target sampling within specific habitats and depths. Within these areas a number of random samples were allocated. Sampling occurred in five areas including Mandu, Osprey and Cloates Sanctuary Zones, and Osprey and Cloates reference areas. 185 stereo-Baited Remote Underwater Video Stations (stereo-BRUVS) samples in total were collected.
