Abstract The Anchovy Recruitment Survey on the Africana Voyage 081 was conducted from 07-12 May 1990. The objectives of the survey were to attain an estimation of the abundance and size-structure of anchovy recruits; describe the distribution and behaviour patterns of anchovy recruits and the influence of oceanographic variables on these; collect biological data on pelagic fish species; examine the distribution, abundance and production of zooplankton in relation to the environment, and to recruit distribution and condition; and the profiling of currents by means of the acoustic doppler current profiler.
