The Vertical Distribution of the Pelagic Fish 'Pleuragramma antarcticum' in Prydz Bay

A series of 6 sets of midwater trawls in Prydz Bay. Each trawl set took place over a 24 hour period to test the extent of diurnal vertical migration in P. antarcticum. Part of the KROCK cruise of Aurora Australis.
