Title: NODC Standard Format Intertidal Organisms and Habitats (F030) Data (1974-1980) (NCEI Accession 0014153)
Abstract: This data type contains data from field sampling of marine organisms in intertidal or subtidal habitats. The data were collected to provide information about species abundance and distribution. Data from each observation may include: cruise and station information such as vessel name, senior scientist, position, date and time; environmental conditions such as surface temperature and salinity, wind speed and direction, and sea state; sediment and habitat descriptors; and species identification and organism counts and measurements. Data may be reported for either individual or composite samples. Specimens are identified by NODC Taxonomic Codes. A text record is available for reporting comments.
