      A total of 242 zooplankton samples from the upper 100 m of the water column was collected discontinuously from March 1997 to January 1999 off the Orange River mouth on the west coast of southern Africa. Six species of ...

    • Towards the acoustic estimation of jellyfish abundance 

      Brierley, Andrew S.; Boyer, David C.; Axelson, Bjorn Erik; Lynam, Christopher P.; Sparks, Conrad A.J.; Boyer, Helen; Gibbons, Mark J. (Inter-Research, 2005)
      Acoustic target strengths (TSs) of the 2 most common large medusae, Chrysaora hysoscella and Aequorea aequorea, in the northern Benguela (off Namibia) have previously been estimated (at 18, 38 and 120 kHz) from acoustic ...
