2013 Sardine Cruise
Eggs are collected while ships are underway using the continuous underway fish egg sampler or CUFES.
We will update this page as frequently as possible during the survey.
All data are preliminary and may be revised after samples are verified in the laboratory. The data posted here should not be used to interpret status of the populations or the state of the environment. Further analyses and additional data are required to make such assessments.
Data are overlaid on an image of satellite-derived sea-surface temperature (degrees C) for the nearest two-week or one-month period based on AVHRR 1.4-km resolution measurements. White areas indicate no data or temperatures outside the range of 11-19 deg C.
