Mapset: Total Zooplankton Biomass in the Gulf of Carpentaria for Wet and Dry Seasons

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

Maps of total zooplankton biomass (dry weight) from stepped oblique bottom to surface plankton tows from Albatross Bay. Biomass estimates from two mesh sizes. These maps have been produced by CSIRO for the National Oceans Office, as part of an ongoing commitment to natural resource planning and management through the 'National Marine Bioregionalisation' project.
