Ocean Acre Cruise Number 14, 4 - 12 June 1972.
Abstract
Although Ocean Acre No. 14 (4-12 June 1972) was one of the shortest in this series it was notable in the number of successful tows made during this period and the quality of data acquired. Thirty-one trawls were made, resulting in 106 separate samples, which consisted of 77 discrete samples, 25 oblique samples and 4 samples composed of horizontal and oblique hauls. During the day 16 discrete levels were sampled ranging in depth from 25m to 1500m. At night, depth of samples ranged from 25m to 1250m. In addition 38 neuston samples were obtained, 24 at night and 14 during the daytime. Acoustic samples at 3.85, 13.5 and 15.5 kHz were taken at noon and midnight. (Author)
