Title: Icthyoplankto Surveys off Sydneys Sewage Outfalls
Custodian: Environment Protection Authority NSW
Jurisdiction: New South Wales
This dataset contains the results from monitoring surveys of juvenille larval fish in the region of the Sydney Deep Water Outfalls and nearby control sites. Regular surveys, 14 sampling periods, were conducted at 7 sites through out the region between December 1989 and February 1993. samples were obtained to determine distributions, numbers, size and age. The deformations of the larval fish from pollution effecs was also looked at. The data were obtained as part of the Sydney Deep Water Outfall Environmental Monitoring Program.
