These data were collected during the BROKE-West voyage of the 2005-2006 season. They are numbers of krill larvae per cubic metre of water at each of the stations at which data were collected. The data cover three species of Antarctic krill - Euphausia crystallorophias, Euphausia superba and Thysanoessa macrura. The superba data have been published in the Kawaguchi et al paper, "Krill demography and large-scale distribution in the Western Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean (CCAMLR Division 58.4.2) in Austral summer of 2006". The data for the other species will be presented in a forthcoming paper by Kerrie Swadling. This work was completed as part of ASAC projects 2655 and 2679 (ASAC_2655, ASAC_2679).
