Summary of measurements |
- -Acoustics: On the first leg of the mission (22/09-08/10) the acoustic exploration was carried out by day (between 06 & 18 GMT) on a grid with transects covering the shelf and slope (from 30 to >2,000m isobaths), at 12 NM invervals.
On the first leg of the mission, a total of 1,406 nautical miles were covered, 804 over radials. On the second leg, the acoustic exploration was carried out 24 hours a day, covering 1,164 NM. -Trawls: We used a pelagic trawl (76/72) and occasionally a small pelagic trawl (57/52). A total of 60 hauls were made during the whole survey. -Hydrology and plankton: The hydrographic stations were located over inter-spaced acoustic transects, with 5 hydrographic stations on each hydrographic transect. A total of 100 vertical salinity, temperature and fluorescence profiles were performed along 20 transects. Plankton samples were also taken by means of different plankton nets (WP2, Calvet and multinet). -Continuous egg sampling. A total of 370 CUFES samples were obtained, with a sample every 3 NM.
