PISCO: Intertidal: Barnacle Fecundity Monitoring: OSU: 2003

This metadata record documents the barnacle fecundity data for the PISCO intertidal. The reproductive state of two barnacle species is monitored monthly at 6 intertidal PISCO sites. To estimate barnacle reproductive state, eight Balanus glandula and eight Chthamalus fissus/dalli are randomly collected around each of the five barnacle recruitment plates in the middle of the mussel zone.

本元数据记录记载了PISCO潮间带藤壶的繁殖力数据。研究团队每月在PISCO的6个潮间带监测点位，对两种藤壶的繁殖状态开展监测。为评估藤壶的繁殖状态，研究人员在贻贝带中部的5块藤壶招募板（barnacle recruitment plates）的每块周边，分别随机采集8个纹藤壶（Balanus glandula）与8个裂壁藤壶/达氏小藤壶（Chthamalus fissus/dalli）个体。
