Soviet Fishery Data (Australian Waters) - vessel Shantar October-November 1973

This dataset comprises catch compositions and trawl locations from a cruise of the Russian fishery research vessel "Shantar" carried out in Australian waters between October and November 1973, containing 7 demersal trawls from the Gulf of Carpentaria and Arafura Sea. Most records include catch composition by species (presence/absence but not weight), also some data on length frequency, maturity and diet of commercially important species. The data were obtained by exchange with Soviet scientists in the mid 1990s and has had CSIRO species codes incorporated. The dataset is now in an Oracle database in Hobart, and analyses/summaries of the data are given in the accompanying report (see References). A MS Access version of the dataset has been compiled for use within the North West Shelf-JEMS study. This version is available on-line for researchers in the NWS-JEMS study (see data links). The data are also accessible to authorised users via CMR's "Data Trawler" application. A username and password is required to access this dataset.

本数据集收录了1973年10月至11月间，俄罗斯渔业研究船"尚塔尔号（Shantar）"在澳大利亚海域开展的科考航次的渔获组成与拖网作业位置信息，其中包含来自卡奔塔利亚湾（Gulf of Carpentaria）和阿拉弗拉海（Arafura Sea）的7组底拖网（demersal trawl）作业数据。多数记录包含按物种划分的渔获组成信息（仅记录物种存在/缺失情况，未标注重量），同时还包含部分具有商业价值物种的体长频率、性成熟状态及食性数据。本数据集数据于20世纪90年代中期通过与苏联科研人员的交流获取，并已加入澳大利亚联邦科学与工业研究组织（CSIRO）的物种编码体系。目前该数据集已存储于霍巴特（Hobart）的Oracle数据库中，相关数据分析与汇总结果详见附属报告（参见参考文献部分）。本数据集已制作成Microsoft Access（MS Access）版本，以供西北大陆架-JEMS（North West Shelf-JEMS, NWS-JEMS）研究项目使用。该版本数据集已上线，供NWS-JEMS研究项目的科研人员使用（详见数据链接部分）。授权用户还可通过CMR的"Data Trawler"应用程序访问本数据集。访问该数据集需提供用户名与密码。
