Shadowed Image Particle Profiling Evaluation Recorder (SIPPER) Plankton Abundance Data from Northern Gulf of Mexico, 2012

Phytoplankton, zooplankton, and larval fish abundance and distributions were collected from the Northern Gulf of Mexico using the SIPPER (Shadowed Image Particle Profiling Evaluation Recorder) camera imaging system on 2 cruises in Spring 2012. This dataset also includes water quality and chemistry data collected during cruises. This data was collected to assess changes in plankton distribution and abundance.
