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: | Zooplankton species abundance: Cooperative Long-Term Ecological Monitoring Project (PULSE), Gulf of Maine from the F/V Lady Regena NEC-JR2001-1 from the Gulf of Maine, 1999-2004 (NEC-CoopRes project) (NCEI Accession 0278751) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected on F/V Lady Regena during cruise NEC-JR2001-1 from 2003-01-17 to 2008-12-29. These data include abundance, depth, and species. These data were collected by Ms Rebecca J. Jones of University of Maine and Dr Jeffrey A. Runge [AFFILIATION UNKNOWN] as part of the "Northeast Consortium: Cooperative Research (NEC-CoopRes)" project and "NorthEast Consortium (NEC)" program. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-02-18. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Zooplankton species abundance, 1999-2004: Coop. Long-term Ecological Monitoring Project (PULSE), Gulf of Maine Dataset Description: "Cooperative Long-term Ecosystem Monitoring in the Gulf of Maine" Project leader: Jeffrey Runge (UNH) Project assistant: Rebecca Jones (UNH) Industry participants: Yankee Fisherman's Coop and Portsmouth Fisherman's Coop. Monitoring Advisory Panel: R.Barnaby (UNH), C.Goudey (MIT Sea Grant), S.Meeker (UNH Sea Grant Extension), L. Mercer (Maine, DNR), D. Mountain (NMFS, Woods Hole), C. Pendleton (NAMA), D. Townsend (UMaine) The overall goal of this project is the design and development of a cooperative, industry-based contribution to monitoring of the pelagic ecosystem in the Gulf of Maine. The need for long-term biological data collection in the Gulf of Maine becomes critical in light of increasing evidence for change in New England's climate. It becomes increasingly important for the fishing industry as decisions about fishery management shift from a single or multi-species to an ecosystem-based approach. By involving the expertise and resources of the local fishing community, we hope to learn more about the natural and man-made variability of the Gulf of Maine marine ecosystem. courtesy of Sampling took place on a weekly schedule with the cooperation of Portsmouth Fishermen's COOP and Seabrook Yankee Fishermen's COOP fishermen. Each week we visited the two stations shown on the above map, Buoy "B" and New Scantum at the southern edge of Jeffreys Ledge. Associated datasets: see , , , and for more data from this study.

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: Data collected during time series, 2003-2005: temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a (at 6 depths), nutrients (phosphate, nitrate, ammonium), zooplankton biomass, abundance and composition at each station (total of 93 stations at Buoy "B" and 87 stations at Jeffreys Ledge over 3 years). The "P" stations were all within Ipswich Bay, MA and the "G" stations were out of Gloucester, MA. Samples taken are a CTD (SeaCat 19 plus) cast for salinity, temperature, density, and fluorescence; 2 vertical ring net tows with a 200 micron mesh for zooplankton and ichthyoplankton assemblages and abundance; and water samples taken from every 10 meter depth from 0-50 meters for nutrient and chlorophyll-a profiling as well as phytoplankton assemblages. |
