Abstract:
In January 2003, investigators from Duke Marine Lab (David Hyrenbach) and CUNY-Staten Island (Richard Veit) embarked on a research cruise spanning the Southern Indian Ocean, from La Reunion Island, to the French territories of Crozet, Kerguelen and Amsterdam, and finishing in Perth, Western Australia. During this cruise, we surveyed marine birds and mammals across a large-scale gradient of ocean productivity and water mass characteristics, spanning from tropical to sub-Antarctic waters (from 21 to 49 degrees S).

摘要：
2003年1月，杜克海洋实验室（David Hyrenbach）与纽约市立大学史泰登岛分校（Richard Veit）的研究人员开启了穿越南印度洋的科考航行——航程始于留尼汪岛，途经克罗泽、凯尔盖朗及阿姆斯特丹等法属领地，最终抵达西澳大利亚的珀斯。此次航行中，研究团队沿海洋生产力与水团特征的大尺度梯度，对热带至亚南极水域（南纬21度至49度）的海鸟及海洋哺乳动物展开了调查。
