BIOMASS, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION, TAXONOMIC CODE, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION - LIFE STAGE and species abundance tows data collected in the Gulf of Alaska on the ALPHA HELIX and WECOMA cruises HX201, HX203 and others as part of the NEP project from 1997-10-10 to 2004-10-07 (NODC Accession 0113896)

NODC Accession 0113896 includes tows and biological data collected aboard the ALPHA HELIX and WECOMA during cruises HX201, HX203, HX205, HX208, HX211, HX215, HX217, HX218, HX219, HX223, HX225, HX228, HX230, HX231, HX234, HX237, HX239, HX241, HX243, HX246, HX248, HX252, HX254, HX257, HX258, HX262, HX263, HX267, HX269, HX270, HX272, HX276, HX279, HX281, HX283, HX286, HX292 and W0307A in the Gulf of Alaska from 1997-10-10 to 2004-10-07. These data include BIOMASS, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION, TAXONOMIC CODE, SPECIES IDENTIFICATION - LIFE STAGE and species abundance. The instruments used to collect these data include net - CalVET net tows. These data were collected by Ken Coyle and Seth Danielson of University of Alaska Fairbanks as part of NEP. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-09-28.

The following is the text of the abstract provided by BCO-DMO:

CalVET catch data - zooplankton species abundance and biomass, 1997 - 2004
Updated July 2008.
All data are for 149 micron CALVET tows, 25.4 cm ring diameter, vertical hauls.
