Zooplankton abundance observations collected from the Calvet Net, as analyzed by Zooscan, from research cruises for the Northern Gulf of Alaska LTER site, 2018-2019

This dataset presents the distribution and abundance of zooplankton collected from the Calvet, net during the NGA-LTER research cruises conducted in the Gulf of Alaska in 2018-2019. Abundance was obtained to the lowest possible taxonomic heirarchy using ZOOSCAN automated software. These data are part of the Northern Gulf of Alaska Long Term Ecological Research (NGA LTER) program. The LTER program is a National Science Foundation–funded network of 28 sites nationwide that focus on the influence of long-term and large-scale phenomenon on ecosystems. Additional funding for sampling is provided by the North Pacific Research Board (NPRB), the Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS), and the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council (EVOS) via the Gulf Watch Alaska program.
