  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Daily folders (9) of Simrad format (.raw) acoustic data. 9 Echoview format (EV) format analysis files. Excel biological data for 9 pelagic hauls. Continual Thermosalinograph data. Continual AGDS data. Cetacean recording and sighting data is held by Aberdeen University.
Objectives:
To conduct an acoustic survey designed to survey both the open and enclosed areas of the Clyde to ultimately provide an estimate of the abundance and distribution of herring and sprat 
To obtain samples of herring and sprat for biological analysis, including age, length, weight, sex, maturity and ichthyophonus infection. All other species caught will be measured for length and weight to establish a length weight relationship.
Data will be gathered on cetaceans using a towed passive acoustic array.</dc:description>
