St Helena Bay Monitoring Line (SHBML) on the Algoa Voyage 088, December 2000
This St Helena Bay Monitoring Line (SHBML) cruise was conducted on the Algoa Voyage 088 in December 2000. This is a long-term monitoring line conducted off the coast of Elands/St Helena Bay on the west coast of South Africa. SHBML started in 2000 as a BENEFIT-driven project on "shipboard monitoring" which linked with similar lines run in Namibia and Angola. The aims were to obtain seasonal and interannual information on the hydrology and productivity of the area. It was incorporated under...
