Impact/Purpose:

not applicable

Description:

The period covered by this report (2006-2011) was bracketed by two extensive sampling events under a coordinated science and monitoring initiative (CSMI) (e.g. Richardson et al. 2012). Spatial concentrations and distributions were similar, species composition was similar, while total biomas slightly lower in 2011 than 2006. The biomass size spectrum from algae to prey was found to be very consistent indicating a stable prey base over this period.
