voyage
Period: 1992-02-06 00:00 to 1992-02-18 00:00 Local
Duration: 12.00 days
From: Townsville To: Townsville
Region: NE Australian slope, Coral Sea
Ship: Franklin [details]
Description: Cruise FR 02/92 (also know as CIDARIS III) was undertaken to collect samples of deep sea bottom fauna from the NE Australian Slope and the adjacent Coral Sea. Survey methods included grabs, sledges, beam trawls and underway instrumentation. The macrofauna collected by sledge and beam trawl represents an excellent sample of the bathyal and upper abyssal benthic fauna and complements the species list obtained in particular during cruise FR 07/88 (CIDARIS II). On board preliminary sorting indicates that a number of specimens belong to new or little know species. Furthermore, valuable data has been obtained on the changes in faunal assemblage with depth and in particular with the nature of the sediment and the amount or organic matter available at the water-sediment interface, resulting from land-derived inputs.
