Zooplankton, oceanographic profile, and other data collected from MOCNESS nets from the NATHANIEL B. PALMER in the Antarctic in support of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) / Southern Ocean and the US JGOFS Antarctic Environments Southern Ocean Process Study (AESOPS) projects from 1996-09-08 to 1997-04-29 (NCEI Accession 0000499)

Net, CTD, bottle, and other data were collected from the NATHANIEL B. PALMER from the Antarctic Ocean (> 60 degrees South) from 08 September 1996 to 29 April 1997. Data were collected in support of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) / Southern Ocean and the US JGOFS Antarctic Environments Southern Ocean Process Study (AESOPS) projects. Zooplankton were collected using a Multiple Opening Closing Net and Environmental Sampling System (MOCNESS) and displaced volumes were determined. CTD parameters include conductivity, temperature, and salinity profiles. Bottle parameters include concentrations of trace metals.
