Hydrographic Survey of the Boags Commonwealth Marine Reserve in Southwestern Bass Strait

The CSIRO’s Oceans & Atmosphere Shallow Survey Internal Facility (SSIF) was contracted by the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (IMAS) of the University of Tasmania (UTAS) in collaboration with Parks Australia, to undertake a hydrographic survey of the Boags Commonwealth Marine Reserve in the southwestern Bass Strait. This site was surveyed in conjunction with other smaller sites for Petuna Aquaculture, as part of a broader survey campaign. All of the sites covered in this campaign are located in the vicinity of the Hunter Group of Islands, off the north-western coast of Tasmania.

澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）的海洋与大气浅层勘测内部设施（Shallow Survey Internal Facility, SSIF）受塔斯马尼亚大学（University of Tasmania, UTAS）海洋与南极研究所（Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, IMAS）委托，并与澳大利亚公园管理局（Parks Australia）合作，针对巴斯海峡西南部的博格斯联邦海洋保护区开展水文勘测。作为一项大型综合勘测项目的组成部分，该保护区与佩图纳水产养殖相关的其他小型勘测点位一并接受了勘测。本次勘测覆盖的全部点位均位于塔斯马尼亚西北海岸外的亨特群岛周边海域。
