This is pre-processed Shipboard Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (SADCP) data from the South Coast Moorings and Monitoring Lines Cruise on Algoa Voyage 213 on 1 to 19 December, 2014. Between 1988 and 2011, environmental and plankton sampling was conducted every summer along the South Coast during the annual pelagic spawner biomass surveys. Data collected during these cruises has provided valuable insight into environmental change in this region. There has been significant decline in copepod biomass on both the western and central Agulhas Bank over the past two decades, as well as a decline in the proportion of the large dominant species Calanus agulhensis, resulting in a shift towards a smaller copepod-dominated community. These changes are thought to have been largely driven by predation by planktivorous fish, which have increased in biomass since the mid-1990s, but increasing sea temperatures have also played a role. It is vital that we continue to monitor the environment and plankton community in key areas off the South Coast to extend our time-monitor series of data and to gain further insight into the possible effects of climate change and variability on this important Agulhas Bank shelf system, which straddles both the Benguela Current and Agulhas Current Large Marine Ecosystems. Monitoring lines off Walker Bay, Mossel Bay and Port Alfred have been selected to represent the western, central and eastern Agulhas Bank respectively. Monitoring in these areas will detect variability in important oceanographic features, such as the cold ridge and divergent upwelling, and will also span key spawning areas of pelagic fish. The Algoa Bay and Port St John monitoring line has been added to the south coast mooring cruises during 2013 and these long term lines will be completed to add to the above mentioned lines.
