Cruise Inventory Information
| Long name | RRS John Biscoe cruise JB04 |
|---|---|
| Short name | JB04 |
| Objectives and Narrative | The primary objective was to investigate krill physiology and behaviour at a time when concentrations of the primary food source (phytoplankton) were low. However, low krill populations were encountered and an alternative study of ichthyoplankton was used to occupy the remaining cruise time. |
