Title: PHYTOPLANKTON - WET WEIGHT and Other Data from VITYAZ from 1949-08-09 to 1955-06-13 (NCEI Accession 9400166)
Abstract: This dataset contains zooplankton data collected using ship VITYAZ over a six year period from August 9, 1949 to June 13, 1955. Twelve data files containing total haul wet weight and other parameters were submitted to NODC by Jury A. Rudjakov of P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, USSR Academy of Science, Moscow, USSR as part of the Global Ocean Data Archaeology and Rescue Project.

This data type contains data from sampling and analysis of marine zooplankton. Information on Zooplankton abundance, distribution and productivity derived from these data support studies of marine populations and ecosystems. Data reported may include: position, date and time of sampling; bottom depth and sampling depths; volume of water filtered; and concentration of cells, carbon concentration, wet and dry weight, and counts for each species reported.

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.
