Objectives | This cruise was the first of two joint cruises with RV CLIONE in which data
are being collected to test a hypothesis concerning plaice migration in the
Southern Bight. CORELLA's roles in this exercise are:-
1. To deternine the relation, if any, between the catch of plaice taken by
a midwater trawl and the direction of the tide.
2. To provide CLIONE with maturing plaice suitable for tracking. |
