Oceanographic zooplankton and phytoplankton collected using Continuous Plankton Recorder in the North Atlantic from 1995 to 1999 (NCEI Accession 0000570)
This dataset represents only a SMALL SAMPLING SUBSET of the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science (SAHFOS) "Continuous Plankton Recorder" (CPR) dataset, covering only the years from 1995-1999, and demonstrates the geographic coverage and the species coverage sampled by this project.
The complete SAHFOS dataset contains over 170,000 samples, sampled from 1946 to the present in the North Atlantic and North Sea regions.
