Phytoplankton and other data from net and bottle casts in the Eastern Subarctic Pacific from the OREGON MAIL and other platforms as part of Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) from 26 June 1960 to 04 July 1972 (NODC Accession 7601829)

Phytoplankton and other data were collected from net and bottle casts in the Eastern Subarctic Pacific from the OREGON MAIL and other platforms from 26 June 1960 to 04 July 1972. Data were collected by the University of Alaska-Fairbanks; Fairbanks Institute of Marine Science (UAK/IMS) and other institutions as part of Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard F028 Phytoplankton format. Full format description is available from NODC at www.nodc.noaa.gov/General/NODC-Archive/f028.html. An analog file for this accession is available from NODC user services.

The F028 format is used for data from the sampling and analysis of marine phytoplankton. Information on phytoplankton abundance, distribution, and productivity derived from these data support studies of marine populations and ecosystems. Data reported may include: position, date, and time of sampling; bottom depth and sampling depths; volume of water filtered; and concentration of cells, carbon concentration, wet and dry weight, and counts for each species reported. Comments may be relayed in a text record.
