The report presents cruises carried out by the research vessels ”G. O. Sars”, ”Johan Hjort”, ”Håkon Mosby”, ”G. M. Dannevig”, “Jan Mayen” and some hired commercial fishing vessels on behalf of the Institute of Marine Research and the University of Bergen during 2009. The charts mainly show CTD and trawl stations. Some charts also include plankton stations. Beside tracks and stations, standard sections observed are listed. A separate table lists the number of observations per month for the fixed stations along the Norwegian coast. The cruises are reported to the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) in the “Cruise Summary Report”. The data may be requested from the Norwegian Marine Data centre at the Institute of Marine Research
