Summary:Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Processed data originate from Division of Fisheries scientists and/or the former electronic data processing (E.D.P.) group, except where otherwise noted. Full details with published data. Data are largely presented as numeric values without analysis or graphical representation. Some of the data are accompanied by cruise tracks, maps of sampling locations, etc. Credit D.J. Rochford Credit R. Spencer Credit P. Kott Credit A.D. Crooks This publication series from CSIRO Fisheries (later CSIRO Fisheries and Oceanography) over the period 1951-1970 contains hydrological and (some) plankton data from Divisional and chartered research vessels, commercial fishing vessels and merchant ships, coastal stations, and some estuarine and onshore waters from the period 1938-1966, compiled under the direction of D.J. Rochford (to 1959) and later A.D. Crooks, among other contributors. Data presented includes measurements from the vessels "Warreen", "Derwent Hunter", "Weerutta", "Marelda", "Estelle Star", "Investigator", "Degei", "Lancelin" ""Queenborough", "Quickmatch", "Warrego", plus numerous commercial fishing vessels and merchant ships, from all regions of Australia plus observations from "Magga Dan" in Antarctic waters in 1959 (vol. 44). Vols. 1-3 deal with "Warreen" data from 1938-1950. Several volumes (5-7, 9-10, 12-13, 15-16, 21, 26, 29, 32) cover estuarine data from Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania from 1940-56. Other volumes cover hydrological stations at Port Hacking (vols. 34, 42, 47, 52, 81-86), Eden (vol. 35), Rottnest Island and Port Moresby (vol. 49), Port Jackson and Wollongong (vol. 87), and Maria Island (vol. 88), as well as numerous other stations sampled less intensively. A number of volumes cover fisheries hydrology in connection with Australian tuna fishing grounds in South Australia and New South Wales between 1960 and 1966. Plankton studies are mainly covered in vols. 1-3, 19 and 22-23. A few ...
