Plankton Dynamics on the Africana Voyage 089, February 1991

The Plankton Dynamics cruise on the Africana Voyage 089 was conducted from 12-23 February 1991. The objectives of the cruise were to complete a summer transect to provide information on zooplankton vertical migration patterns during the period of maximum upwelling; to contrast hydrological and planktological conditions across the shelf just north of the Columbine divergence, at a time when pelagic fish larvae transported in the jet current were crossing the shelf to the nursery area; to measure rates of primary and secondary production in different size classes of planktonic organisms at offshore (shelf-break), mid shelf and inshore locations; to examine the influence of recent feeding history on the condition of pre-recruit pelagic fish; to measure time-dependent fluctuations in the currents using the acoustic doppler current profiler; and to make measurements of nitrogen dynamics within the planktonic community.

Processed CTD discrete observations from the Plankton Dynamics on the Africana Voyage 089, February 1991

Here we present processed Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) discrete data from the upcast collected between 12 and 23 February 1991, during voyage 089 on the FRS Africana, in the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) region on the west coast of Southern Africa. Neil Brown MK3 and MK4 CTD instruments were used to measure pressure, temperature and conductivity through the water column during research and monitoring cruises between 1983 and 2000.
