Zooplankton and hydrology of inshore coastal waters of South-Eastern Tasmania 1971-1972

Zooplankton samples were collected at inshore coastal waters of south eastern Tasmania, between the years 1971 and 1972. Three stations were selected to cover the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, mouth of the Derwent River and the Storm Bay areas. Surface, midwater and bottom zooplankton samples were collected monthly for a period of twelve months during the day as well as night time, using horizontal tows. Data for temperature and salinity were also obtained from the stations.

本数据集的浮游动物（Zooplankton）样本采集工作于1971年至1972年间开展，采样区域为塔斯马尼亚州东南部近岸沿海水域。研究人员共布设3个采样站位，分别覆盖德恩特雷卡斯托海峡（D'Entrecasteaux Channel）、德文特河河口与风暴湾（Storm Bay）海域。采样采用水平拖网方式，在为期12个月的周期内每月开展昼夜采样，分别采集表层、中层及底层浮游动物样本。此外，研究人员同步从各采样站位获取了海水温度与盐度数据。
