North Marine Region syngnathid collection records (DEW collation)

The dataset comprises catch records of syngnathids (seahorses, pipefish etc.) from demersal fish trawls, demersal prawn trawls and epibenthic sled samples from the North Marine Region. It is a compilation of data from 9 research voyages (SO 05/80, SO 07/80, SO 02/81, SS 03/90, SS 05/91, SS 01/93, SS 02/97, SS 08/97 and SS 03/98) and the CSIRO scientific observer program, 1996-98. The dataset was created for the Department of the Environment and Water Resources (DEW) for use in profiling of the North Marine Region during the development of a marine bioregional plan for the region.本数据集收录了北部海洋区域（North Marine Region）内，底栖鱼类拖网、底栖对虾拖网以及底上生物拖网（epibenthic sled）采样所获取的海龙科（syngnathids，涵盖海马、海龙等类群）渔获记录。该数据集整合了9个科考航次（SO 05/80、SO 07/80、SO 02/81、SS 03/90、SS 05/91、SS 01/93、SS 02/97、SS 08/97及SS 03/98）与1996至1998年联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）科学观察员计划的相关数据。本数据集由环境与水资源部（Department of the Environment and Water Resources，DEW）委托构建，用于该区域海洋生物区域规划编制过程中对北部海洋区域的生态特征剖析工作。
