Abstract

Abundance of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTU's) from images collected by the ROV/SCINI along midwater transects under the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Dec. 2008

Spatial Extent: N:-78.22 E:164.24 S:-78.22 W:164.22
Temporal Extent: 2008-12-02 - 2008-12-06

This dataset includes abundances of taxa that were observed in images taken along midwater transects under the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica during December 2008. The imagery was collected with a Remotely Operated Vehicle called the 'Submersible Capable of under Ice Navigation and Imaging' (ROV/SCINI). Transects ranged in length from 10 to 45 meters and from a depth of 10 to 183 meters.
