  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Daily folders (19) of Simrad (.ek5 format) acoustic data. Echoview format (EV) format analysis files. Excel biological data for 49 pelagic hauls. CTD data for 14 vertical dips. Continual AGDS data.
Objectives:
1.	To participate in an ICES - coordinated acoustic and mid-water trawling survey in the north western North Sea and North of Scotland between 58&#xB0; to 62&#xB0;N 4&#xB0;30' W to 2&#xB0;E excluding Norwegian and Farces waters.
2.	To obtain samples of herring for biological analysis, including age, length, weight, sex, maturity and ichthyophonus infection.
3.	To obtain thermosalinograph recordings of surface temperature and salinity throughout the survey area. CTD (and XBT) profiles of temperature and salinity at depth for analysis with herring distributions. -
4.	To obtain simultaneous coverage with FRV Michael Sars of ICES rectangles 46E9,47E9,49E9 and 50E9.</dc:description>
