Flinders and Tasman Fracture Australian Marine Parks Pilot Survey- Shelf Baited Underwater Video (BRUV) component, Australia (2012-2015)

The Tasman Fracture CMR AUV survey was a pilot study undertaken in 2014/15 as part of the National Marine Biodiversity Hub's National monitoring, evaluation and reporting theme. The aim of this theme is to develop a blueprint for the sustained monitoring of the South-east Commonwealth Marine Reserve Network. The particular aim of the survey was to contribute to an inventory of the distribution and cover of epibenthic biota in the reserve using IMOS AUV 'Sirius'. The Flinders CMR survey was a pilot study undertaken in August 2012 as part of the National Marine Biodiversity Hub's National monitoring, evaluation and reporting theme. The aim of this theme is to develop a blueprint for the sustained monitoring of the South-east Commonwealth Marine Reserve Network. The particular aims of the survey were twofold; 1) to contribute to an inventory of demersal and epibenthic conservation values in the reserve and 2) to test methodologies and deployment strategies in order to inform future survey design efforts. Several gear types were deployed; including multibeam sonar, shallow-water (less than 150m) Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUVs), deep- water BRUVs, towed video and digital stereo stills. This resource contains the shallow-water BRUV footage captured on the FLinders CMR shelf (less than 150 m).塔斯马尼亚断裂联邦海洋保护区（Commonwealth Marine Reserve, CMR）自主水下航行器（Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, AUV）调查是2014/2015年开展的试点研究，隶属于国家海洋生物多样性中心的国家监测、评估与报告专项主题。该专项主题的目标是为东南联邦海洋保护区网络的长期可持续监测制定总体规划。本次调查的特定目标是依托IMOS AUV“Sirius”号，对该保护区内底上生物（epibenthic biota）的分布与覆盖范围开展编目工作。 弗林德斯联邦海洋保护区（Flinders CMR）调查是2012年8月开展的试点研究，同样隶属于国家海洋生物多样性中心的国家监测、评估与报告专项主题，该主题的目标同样是为东南联邦海洋保护区网络的长期可持续监测制定总体规划。本次调查的特定目标分为两项：其一，为该保护区内的底栖（demersal）与底上生物保护价值编制名录；其二，测试调查方法与部署策略，为后续的调查设计工作提供参考依据。本次调查部署了多种探测装备，包括多波束声呐、浅海（水深小于150米）诱饵式远程水下视频（Baited Remote Underwater Video, BRUVs）系统、深海诱饵式远程水下视频系统、拖曳式视频设备以及数字立体静态摄影装置。本数据集包含在弗林德斯联邦海洋保护区陆架区（水深小于150米）采集的浅海诱饵式远程水下视频影像素材。
