Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | FRV Scotia (748S) cruise 0403S |
|---|---|
| Short name | 0403S |
| Objectives and Narrative |
1. Demersal trawling survey of the grounds off the north and west coasts of Scotland and Irish Sea.
2. To obtain temperature and salinity data from surface and seabed at each trawling position. 3. To collect information on the distribution and reproductive development of cod. 4. To collect samples of cod, haddock and whiting for analysis of reproductive development, genetics and otolith chemistry. 5. To tag cod in the Clyde area for investigations of their movements. 6. Recording of EM950 Multibeam Swathe Bathymetry data during all gear tows and recording of multiple frequency acoustic Echosounder integration data for the CATEFA Project. |
