Title: BIOMASS, Displacement Volume, WATER DEPTH, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION and other tows - plankton tows data collected in the Coastal Waters of SE Alaska, Gulf of Alaska and North Pacific Ocean on NOAA Ship JOHN N. COBB cruises SECM, jc0005 and others as part of the NEP project from 1997-05-24 to 2006-08-20 (NCEI Accession 0115197)
Abstract: This dataset includes discrete sample, meteorological, tows - plankton tows and biological data collected aboard NOAA Ship JOHN N. COBB during cruises SECM, jc0005, jc0009, jc0012, jc0016, jc0018, jc0105, jc0109, jc0113, jc0116, jc0118, jc0205, jc0209, jc0213, jc0216, jc0302, jc0304b, jc0305, jc0308, jc0310, jc0312, jc0406, jc0408, jc0411, jc0414, jc0506, jc0508, jc0510, jc0512, jc0608, jc0611, jc0613, jc0616, jc9706, jc9709, jc9711, jc9714, jc9717, jc9805, jc9808, jc9811, jc9815, jc9818, jc9906, jc9909, jc9912, jc9915 and jc9918 in the Coastal Waters of SE Alaska, Gulf of Alaska and North Pacific Ocean from 1997-05-24 to 2006-08-20. These data include BIOMASS, Displacement Volume, WATER DEPTH, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION - LIFE STAGE, ANIMALS - INDIVIDUAL - COUNTS, ZOOPLANKTON BIOMASS, TAXONOMIC CODE and PHYTOPLANKTON BIOMASS. The instruments used to collect these data include thermosalinographs, bottle, CTD, net and radiometer. These data were collected by Alex C Wertheimer, Emily A Fergusson, Joseph A Orsi and Molly V Sturdevant of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - Alaska Fisheries Science Center as part of NEP. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-10-31.

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

Zooplankton counts from net tows taken in conjunction with juvenile salmon studies in the Gulf of Alaska from 1997-2006 by the Southeast Coastal Monitoring Project. Measurements include settling volume, displacement volume, composition of taxa.
