April to 11th May 1994. Aims of the surveys included,
- To survey plankton populations and hydrographic structure from the Malin
Shelf to the North Channel for evidence of transport of copepods into the
Irish Sea.

by high speed towed net (HSTN), both coarse and fine mesh, and by Longhurst
Hardy Plankton Recorder (LHPR), plus associated positional data and volumes
