Title: Benthic fauna data: crustacea collections from the Mamala Bay Study from 1993-08-01 to 1994-11-30 (NCEI Accession 9900112)
Abstract: This dataset includes Benthic Fauna Data: Crustacea Collections 1993-1994 from the Mamala Bay Study (Sand Island Sewage Outfall), assembled by Dr. William J. Cooke of the Water Resources Research Center, University of Hawaii at Manoa. The study yielded a total of sixty-two discrete crustacean taxa from the nine sampling stations across the project area. The purpose was to investigate the influence of sewage outfall on crustacean taxa of benthic community within Mamala Bay, Oahu, Hawaii.

Supplementary information: Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM).

Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description.

To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis.
