Results of a survey on krill, environment and predators in CCAMLR division 88.1 in the Austral summer 2003-2004.

A new plankton net, called HPRI-1000, designed in Italy at the CNR-ISMAR of Ancona was used for the surveys. The net performance was excellent. In particular, the E. superba catch, was higher than for previous expeditions. The water masses were sampled with a CTD and XBT when weather conditions allowed. Krill predators were also sampled at the same time, therefore we can say that four synoptic surveys were made.
