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.
