Data Trawler - Survey Details

FR 04/89 (alternative identifier: FR198904)    - is a Marine National Facility voyage

Period: 1989-03-23 00:00 to 1989-04-01 00:00 Local

Duration: 9.00 days

From: Adelaide To: Melbourne

Region: South Australian waters

Ship: Franklin [details]

Description: Cruise FR 04/89 was undertaken (alongside the FRV Ngerin) to investigate the frontal activity at the mouth of Spencer Gulf, and its bearing on the apparent inhibition of fluid exchange across the Gulf entrance during the summer and to evaluate the extent of Bight water intrusion into the Gulf/shelf zone, and its role in the dynamics of the frontal zone. Survey methods included CTD profiles, ADCP and underway instrumentation. FRV Ngerin also conducted CTD profiles and fish larval trawls in and around the front. Numerous water samples were collected and nutrient analysis was conducted on board and chlorophyll analysis to be performed following the cruise. Fish larval distributions will be assessed and reported by the South Australian Department of Fisheries. These data collections will complete the 1989 program of observations in the frontal zone.
