The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | San Antonio Bay benthos species abundance before and after Hurricane Harvey, Feb. 2017 - July 2019 (NCEI Accession 0278351) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected on small boat: TAMUCC during cruise TAMUCC-HRI in the Gulf of Mexico from 2017-02-22 to 2019-07-09. These data include abundance, taxon, and taxon_code. The instruments used to collect these data include Microscope-Optical and Push Corer. These data were collected by Paul A. Montagna of Texas A&M, Corpus Christi as part of the "RAPID: Capturing the Signature of Hurricane Harvey on Texas Coastal Lagoons (Hurricane Harvey Texas Lagoons)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-12-26. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: macrofauna species abundance Dataset Description: The effects of Hurricane Harvey were studied. This dataset includes abundance of identified benthic macrofauna from sediment core samples collected in San Antonio Bay, northwest Gulf of Mexico estuaries along the Texas coast. They were collected during eleven quarterly sampling trips on a small boat, Feb-July, 2019. |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: Sediment samples were collected using cores deployed from small boats (Montagna and Kalke 1992). Macrofauna were sampled with a 6.7-cm diameter core tube (35.4 cm2 area). The cores were sectioned at 0-3 cm and 3-10 cm depths to ease the samples sorting and identification process for macrofauna but summed for whole core analyses here. Three replicates were taken per station. Organisms were extracted on a 0.5 mm sieve and enumerated to the lowest taxonomic level possible. |
