Professor Iain Suthers from UNSW recently led a voyage on board RV Investigator  from Brisbane to Sydney.

The teams were working around the clock to deploy equipment and collect crucial data to help us better understand how cold eddies that spiral off the East Australian Current play a pivotal role in our fisheries.

The larval lobsters collected on the voyage are completely amazing – they’re transparent like a piece of cellophane, and thin and flat like piece of paper.

You should check out the video, it’s incredible!
