Metadata record for data from ASAC Project 473 See the link below for public details on this project. Data for this project was primarily collected on two voyages to the Heard Island area - the HIMS voyage (1990), and the FISHOG voyage (1992). The data have been compiled by Angela McGaffin, and can be found in the "processed" folder of the download file. Original datasets are also available in the "Original Datasets" folder. The data primarily consist of CTD data, krill data and zooplankton data. HIMS was a marine science voyage, which travelled to Heard Island in May and June of 1990. FISHOG was a marine science voyage, which travelled to Heard Island and Antarctica from January to March of 1992.
