West Australian Marine Science Institute (WAMSI) Node 1.1.3 - Marmion Benthic Survey 2007 (Southern Surveyor voyage SS200704), Australia

In May-June 2007, an "autumn bloom cruise" was conducted on the National Marine Facility, Southern Surveyor, led by Peter Thompson. The voyage was conducted in three legs, with a the first conducted from May 10th to May 15th focused on benthic habitats. Benthic based operations were performed over two transects near Perth at 31.71S and 31.76S from 115.63E to 115.15E with stations at depths of 30, 40, 50, 75, 100 and 150m. Acoustic swath mapping of the sea-bed was conducted during the entire voyage; at each of the 12 study sites, benthic sled dredges, sediment grabs, benthic video and CTD casts were completed.

2007年5月至6月，由彼得·汤普森（Peter Thompson）牵头，在“南方考察者号”（Southern Surveyor）国家海洋科考设施上开展了“秋季藻华科考航次”。本次航次划分为三个航段，第一航段于5月10日至5月15日实施，以底栖生境（benthic habitats）为核心研究对象。针对底栖生境的野外作业沿两条断面展开，作业区域位于珀斯附近海域，地理坐标覆盖南纬31.71°、31.76°，东经115.63°至115.15°，共设置30m、40m、50m、75m、100m及150m共6个深度采样站位。全航次全程开展海底条带声呐测绘；在全部12个研究站位均完成了底栖撬式拖网采样、抓斗式沉积物采样、底栖原位视频观测及温盐深仪（CTD）剖面测量。
