This dataset contains biological, meteorological, optical, and physical data collected on OIMB Pier during deployment Emlet_2014-16 from 2014-01-01 to 2016-03-18. These data include chlorophyll a, fluorescence, precip_level, salinity calculated from CTD primary sensors, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Fluorometer, Precipitation Gauge, Pump, Refractometer, Thermistor, and Water Temperature Sensor. These data were collected by Alan L. Shanks, David A. Sutherland, and Richard Emlet of University of Oregon as part of the "Spawning During Storms and the Subsequent Dispersal and Settlement of Coastal Invertebrate Larvae (Storm larvae)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-01-21.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
The OIMB pier is located on the Oregon Coast, Coos Bay entrance (43 20.978'N, 124 19.795'W).

Methodology:
Daily samples of oceanic water were collected approx. 30 minutes before high tide (early morning to late afternoon) with an electric (220V) diaphragm pump (American Machine Self Priming Pump, Model 335E-K6, 3" diameter with a 2hp motor). Salinity, water temperature, and fluorescence were measured for water in the daily pier samples. Tide height was assumed from predictions of Mr Tides (url: http://www.mrtides.com/ ; site: Coos Bay entrance, Oregon); Wind stress and wave height were calculated from NOAA buoy Station 46015 (off Port Orford, Oregon).

Sampling dates:
2016: Data are reported from 1/4/2016 to 3/18/2016 (75 days).
2015: Data are reported from 1/6/2015 to 3/19/2015 (73 days).
2014: Data are reported from 1/1/2014 to 3/20/2014 (79 days).

Note: The 2014 and 2015 data report chlorophyll-a in milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m3). The 2016 data reports fluorescence in amps (AC current output).
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
