What does this data set describe?

Title: CRED Cumulative Fish Biomass Estimates Map at Gardner Pinnacles
Abstract:
This map displays fish biomass observation locations overlaid on bathymetry.
Supplemental_Information:
Gardner Pinnacles, located at 168.1N, 25.0W, is a pair of basaltic islets estimated to be 14 million years old. The larger of the two pinnacles has a diameter of about 180m at sea level. The shelf around Gardner includes 1,904 sq. km in depths shallower than 100m. Cruises CoRIS Metadata Record Names OES0306 cred_toad_gardner_pinnacles_oes0306_2003
