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 and other data in the Bering Sea from NOAA Ship SURVEYOR and NOAA Ship DISCOVERER from 1977-03-21 to 1977-06-06 (NCEI Accession 7800306) |
| Abstract: | Data were submitted by University of Alaska Institute of Marine Science as part of the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) project. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard F024 - Zooplankton data format. The F024 Zooplankton data format is designed to support studies for determining seasonal density distributions of zooplankton. Information on diversity, abundance and productivity can be derived from the data reported in this format. The format consists of eight data records for reporting cruise information, position, date and time, sample depths as well as haul data such as gear type, haul distribution and total wet and dry weight. The zooplankton catch is reported by species and includes fields for wet and dry weight and the number of adults, juveniles, eggs and larvae. A text record also is available for additional comments. A plankton data record gives estimated density information. An ichthyoplankton data record is also present. |

| 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.
