This record is an overview entry for biological data collected on Soela cruise SO 1/83. This cruise took place in the North West Shelf during 20 January - 2 March 1983, under the leadership of Tim Davis and Keith Sainsbury. Biological data collected on this cruise include composition and abundance data of demersal fish. Fish samples for biological studies (growth, reproduction and mortality). Zooplankton abundance data and larval fish samples. Carangid larvae for ageing studies. Lobster samples from six exploratory trawls. Lutjanus vitta and L. russelli for assessment of lunar periodicity of spawning. Prey availability and diet of Nemipterus peronii, N. tambuloides and Saurida undosquamis were examined in 6 areas. Fish specimens were obtained for stomach analysis, and benthic and epibenthic samples from the area. Dive observation data from an area adjacent to Bedout Island for experimental manipulation of epibenthos.(derived from the cruise report) - Biological data is available via Data Trawler. - Biological Field Data Sheets recorded during this voyage have been scanned to PDF, and are available on-line at http://www.marine.csiro.au/datacentre/process/data_files/BioData/log_sheet_scans/BOX_AB2009_550/BOX_AB2009_550_index.htm and http://www.marine.csiro.au/datacentre/process/data_files/BioData/log_sheet_scans/BOX_AB2009_551/BOX_AB2009_551_index.htm
