Description

During the 2008 Collaborative East Antarctic Marine Census (CEAMARC) campaign in the Southern Ocean on the T/V Umitaka Maru, several NORPAC nets (45-cm diameter, 0.33-mm mesh aperture; Motoda 1957) were deployed in the Subantarctic zone and Antarctic zone south of Australia. This dataset contains the cnidarians and ctenophores captured in these 0-150m water column tows.
