Marine mammal specimen and other data from the SURVEYOR and other platforms as part of the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP) from 20 March 1977 to 02 November 1977 (NODC Accession 7900319)

Marine mammal specimen and other data were collected from the SURVEYOR and other platforms from 20 March 1977 to 02 November 1977. Data were collected by the Alaska State Department of Fish and Game as part of the Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program (OCSEAP). Data were processed by NODC to the NODC standard F025 Marine Mammal Specimens format. Full format description ia available from the NODC homepage at www.nodc.noaa.gov/. An analog file for this accession is available from NODC user services. The F025 format is designed to support studies of biological populations and ecosystems that are subject to impact from oil and gas development, marine pollution and other environmental disturbances. Information on marine animal populations, activities, migratory routes and breeding locales are obtained from either surface ship or aircraft surveys. The F025 format contains data from examinations of marine mammal specimens. The data are collected to define behavior, population dynamics and trophic relationships of marine mammals. In addition to species, position, time and environmental conditions at the collection site, data for each specimen may include weight and body dimensions, sex and reproductive status, age, primary cause of death and analysis of stomach contents. The species of both the specimen and its ingested prey are encoded using the NODC Taxonomic Code. Comments may be reported in a free-text record.1977年3月20日至1977年11月2日期间，研究人员通过“勘测者号”（SURVEYOR）及其他平台采集了海洋哺乳动物标本及相关数据。该数据由阿拉斯加州渔猎部采集，作为外大陆架环境评估计划（Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program, OCSEAP）的组成部分。数据由国家海洋资料中心（National Oceanographic Data Center, NODC）按照NODC标准F025海洋哺乳动物标本格式完成处理。完整的格式说明可从NODC官网www.nodc.noaa.gov获取。本数据集的模拟文件可通过NODC用户服务渠道获取。 F025格式旨在为受油气开发、海洋污染及其他环境扰动影响的生物种群与生态系统研究提供支撑。海洋动物种群、活动、洄游路径及繁殖栖息地的相关信息，均通过水面舰艇或航空勘测获取。 F025格式收录海洋哺乳动物标本的检测数据。采集此类数据的目的在于阐明海洋哺乳动物的行为模式、种群动态及营养级关系。除采集位点的物种信息、地理位置、时间及现场环境条件外，每份标本的相关数据还可涵盖体重与体尺、性别及繁殖状态、年龄、主要致死原因以及胃容物分析结果。标本及其摄食猎物的物种信息均采用NODC分类编码进行标注。可通过自由文本记录添加备注信息。
