Progress Code: completed Statement: This voyage was one of six which studied the abundance and distribution of Euphausia superba. This provided a good coverage of the area at varying season times and conditions. There are some differences in sampling sites due to logistical constraints and weather conditions. The quality of the scanned pages of the logs may vary. These data were collected on the sixth Nella Dan voyage of a long term field survey project being conducted by the Australian Antarctic Division, to collect distribution, abundance and population structure data for the krill Euphausia superba in the Prydz Bay region, Antarctica. This voyage, the Australian Antarctic Marine Biological Ecosystem Research 1986/1987 (AAMBER 86/87) cruise, operated between February and April 1987. The dataset includes two scanned copies of the Hyrdoacoustic logs of the voyage.
