Data · collection

Zooplankton populations sampled with a MOCNESS 10 m^2 net tow system, data reported are abundance and length at the species level, Georges Bank, 1995-1999, GLOBEC.

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

Zooplankton populations were monitored on a monthly basis (Jan-Jun), years 1995-1999, for a total of thirty cruises.

Description

Plankton tows were made using a MOCNESS 10 system with 5-6 (10 m^2) nets having 3.00-mm circular mesh. Nets are opened and closed sequentially by commands through conducting cable from the surface.

Organisms are identified at the species level. Abundance is calculated. In a companion file, length data are reported at the species level (see related URLs).

Environmental data (CTD sensor package appended to the MOCNESS) are reported in an ancillary object/file (see related URLs).
