  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">This survey was carried out as part of the International Council for the 
Exploration of the Sea (ICES) coordinated herring larvae survey of ICES Region 
IVb during the two standard sampling periods in October. The aims were to 
examine the drift, growth and mortality of herring larvae, as well as the 
vertical distribution of herring larvae in relation to water masses and 
movement. Plankton samples were collected at each site on the survey grid. 
This data consists of the numbers of larvae, along with associated positional 
data and volumes filtered.</dc:description>
