The Australian Continuous Plankton Recorder survey measures plankton communities as a guide to ocean health. The biomass index is derived from dry weight analysis of plankton samples collected from Australian waters. This joint project by CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere and the Australian Antarctic Division aims to map biodiversity and document changes in response to climate change.
This dataset has been superseded. Users should access the newer 'IMOS - Zooplankton Abundance and Biomass Index (CPR)' collection. Data is freely available but requires acknowledging all relevant parties.
