Species distribution and habitat data from the Lau Back-arc Basin acquired during Melville expedition MGLN07MV (2006)

This data set brings together data acquired with a Digital Camera, ISEA Chemistry Probe, and Temperature Probe during Melville expedition MGLN07MV conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. Charles Fisher; Investigator(s): Elizabeth Podowski, Dr. Charles Fisher, and Dr. George Luther). These data files are of Shapefile format and include Electrochemistry, Species Distribution, and Temperature data. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Collaborative Research: Site evaluations and background studies of interactions among fluid chemistry, physiology, and community ecology for Ridge 2000 Lau Basin Integrated Studies and Bacterial population structure: evaluating gene flow in the symbionts of deep-sea mussels, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE02-40896, OCE02-40982, OCE02-40985, OCE02-41250, and OCE04-53901. This data was cited by Podowski et al., 2010.

本数据集整合了2006年开展的梅尔维尔科考航次MGLN07MV中，使用数码相机、ISEA化学探针（ISEA Chemistry Probe）与温度探针（Temperature Probe）采集得到的各类数据。本次航次的首席科学家为查尔斯·费舍尔博士，研究人员包括伊丽莎白·波多夫斯基、查尔斯·费舍尔博士与乔治·卢瑟博士。本数据集的文件采用Shapefile格式（Shapefile），涵盖电化学数据、物种分布数据与温度数据。本次数据采集工作隶属于两项科研项目：其一为“合作研究：脊2000劳盆地综合研究中流体化学、生理过程与群落生态间相互作用的场地评估及背景研究”，其二为“细菌种群结构：深海贻贝共生菌基因流评估”。本研究由美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation, NSF）通过以下项目资助：OCE02-40896、OCE02-40982、OCE02-40985、OCE02-41250及OCE04-53901。本数据集相关研究成果已被Podowski等人（2010年）引用。
