WAMSI Node 4.2.1a - Bioregional level assessments based on fishery dependent and/or fishery independent data - Peel-Harvey Estuary

The Peel-Harvey Estuary was divided into five regions; the Entrance Channel, Eastern Peel Inlet, Western Peel Inlet, Northern Harvey Estuary and Southern Harvey Estuary. Within each region four sites were sampled seasonally over two years (total of 8 sampling occasions). At each site, sampling of fish was conducted using seine nets with length and weight of all collected fish measured. In addition, water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen were measured at each site. The aim of the study is to develop cost-effective strategies for monitoring the fish community.\n\nData is still being collected / processed and will be released at the end of WAMSI program.

皮尔-哈维河口（Peel-Harvey Estuary）被划分为五个区域：入口航道（Entrance Channel）、东皮尔湾（Eastern Peel Inlet）、西皮尔湾（Western Peel Inlet）、北哈维河口（Northern Harvey Estuary）与南哈维河口（Southern Harvey Estuary）。各区域内均布设4个采样点，在两年周期内按季节开展采样工作，累计完成8次采样任务。于每个采样点采用围网（seine nets）采集鱼类样本，并对所有采集个体的体长与体重进行测量；同时在各采样点同步测定水温、盐度与溶解氧含量。本研究旨在制定经济高效的鱼类群落监测策略。
当前数据仍处于采集与处理阶段，将在WAMSI项目结束后正式发布。
