资源简介：
This cruise was subtitled "Predator/Prey Cruise"; its primary
objective to provide cross programme links between the Pelagic
Ecosystem Studies (PES) and the Higher Predator programme. This was
facilitated by the introduction of remote sensing techniques that
could give real-time information on sea-surface temperature and the
location of satellite tagged predators. This primary objective was
approached by investigating the following areas:
(1) The multiple aims of PES long term monitoring programme
(specifically resources)
(2) Shipborne observations of sea-birds
(3) The use of remote sensing data
The main uses of ship time were a krill study (Leg 1) and a squid
study (Leg 2). Other work (bird studies, physical and chemical
measurements etc) ran concurrently.
The cruise demonstrated a link between krill populations and the
breeding success of krill dependant predators.
