Seabird distributions during the upwelling season of 2000, northern California Current system, GLOBEC.

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

As a part of the GLOBEC-Northeast Pacific project, seabird populations were surveyed on two cruises to northern portion of the California Current System.

Description

The surveys were conducted simultaneously in June (onset of upwelling) and August (mature phase of upwelling). Observations were conducted continuously during daylight, using a 300-m-wide transect strip.

Within that strip, birds were counted that occurred within the 90 degree quadrant off the ship's bow. Two observers were on watch during all survey periods. R/V New Horizon cruises: NH0005 28 May - 13 June 2000 NH0007 27 July - 12 Aug 2000
