Report from cruise with KV "Senja" and KV "Andenes" to the Barents Sea, 1-24 April 1986 : (PRO MARE cruise no.7)
1986
Skjoldal, Hein Rune
The purpose of the cruise was to investigate the plankton development in early spring. This report, which is mainly administrative, summarizes information on cruise participants, cruise tracks and stations, sampling and laboratory facilities. An overview of hydrographical conditions and phytoplankton development is also given. Melting of ice in Atlantic water had produced stratified conditions which favoured early bloom development. In terms of phytoplankton, the stations occupied ranged from late winter prebloom situation to an active spring bloom situation half way towards nutrients depletion
