    Résumé

    A major biological/physical survey of the waters off East Antarctica was carried out between January and April 1996. The focus was on the distribution and abundance of Antarctic krill in CCAMLR Statistical Area 58.4.1 but in addition, measurements were also made on a whole suite of oceanographic and biological variables over the entire survey area. This paper summarises the range of variables measured and provides an overview of some preliminary results.
