NOTE: Newest data, v3.1, is not yet linked to the mapping service.

Notes:

  1. Values are the number of organisms per 100 m3 of water sampled.
  2. Taxa were selected based on time series mean abundance greater than 100 per 100 m3 and occurrence in greater than 5% of samples.
  3. Number of stations between the 100 m^3 and 10 m^2 datasets may be different because the number of larvae under 10 m2 was not calculated at stations where the net was greater than 5-m off the bottom.

NOAA/NMFS Data Use and Acknowledgement Policy:

These data are provided by the Northeast Fisheries Science Center of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service. A number of different vessels have been involved in sampling, and gear and methods have evolved over time. All of these factors affect sampling and the interpretation of data. The agency has developed correction factors to adjust for these changes and use other statistical tools for population estimates. The data we present here can be used as an index of abundance (over time or space) within a species or among species with similar vulnerability to the sampling gear. The data refer to a standard tow or sample and are not normalized to a unit area. Please refer to the detailed metadata for each dataset for more information, and to the data products for useful summaries of the data. Users are encouraged to contact the responsible agencies for guidance in using the data.

It is not ethical to publish data without proper attribution or co-authorship. The data are the intellectual property of the collecting investigator(s).

The intellectual investment and time committed to the collection of a data set entitles the investigator to the fundamental benefits of the data set. Publication of descriptive or interpretive results derived immediately and directly from the data is the privilege and responsibility of the investigators who collect the data.

The purpose of a data archive is to facilitate collaboration between scientists, to allow the combination of multiple data sets for interdisciplinary and comparative studies, and the development and testing of new theories. The data managed by the Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) are made available even though they may not be "final" (i.e., error free) data.

Any person making substantial use of a data set must communicate with the investigators who acquired the data and/or the Data Management Office prior to publication and anticipate that the data collectors will be co-authors of published results. This extends to model results and to data organized for retrospective studies.

The data available here are intended for scholarly use by the academic and scientific community, with the express understanding that any such use will properly acknowledge the originating investigator. Use or reproduction of any material herein for any commercial purpose is prohibited without prior written permission from the Data Management Office.


Methods & Sampling

Plankton sampling was conducted bi-monthly, monthly, or quarterly each year depending on the sampling program. Samples were collected both day and night on cruises using a 61-cm bongo net fitted with a 333-?m mesh net. Oblique tows were a minimum of 5-mintues in duration, and fished from the surface to within 5-m of the seabed or to a maximum depth of 200-m. A mechanical flowmeter was fitted in the mouth of each net to record the volume sampled. Samples were preserved in 5% formalin.

This dataset does not include the samples from the 20cm Bongo.  (NMFS 3.1 - 2017-03-23)


Data Processing Description

Plankton tows differ with respect to volume of water filtered and maximum tow depth. In order to make data values comparable, these values were normalized through the use of a standard haul factor. The two standard haul factors were: the number of organisms beneath 10 m^2 of sea surface (eq. 1) and the number per 100 m^3 of water sampled (eq. 2).

Eq. 1: h = z * 10 / v

where: z = maximum tow depth (in meters)
v = volume of water filtered (in meters cubed)

Eq. 2: h = 100 / v

where: v = volume of water filtered (in meters cubed)

Sample sorting and identification of most samples was done at the Morski Instytut Rybacki in Szczecin, Poland. Samples were reduced to approximately 500 organisms by sub-sampling into aliquots with a modified box splitter. Zooplankton were sorted, counted, and identified to the lowest possible taxa. The number for each taxa identified was multiplied by the number of aliquots to estimate total sample abundance; which then was multiplied by one of the standard haul factors.

BCO-DMO Processing:
- reformatted date  from dd-Mon-yy to yyyy-mm-dd
- added columns for year, month, day
- sorted all the data by year, then cruise_name, then station
- replaced taxon codes with taxon names
- replaced 97 NaN's in volume column with nd
- transposed taxon columns to rows

Instruments

Dataset-specific Instrument Name
Bongo Net
Generic Instrument Name
Bongo Net
Dataset-specific Description
Data were collected using 61cm diameter Bongo nets. (It is the same instrument and configuration as used during the U.S. GLOBEC Georges Bank studies 1995-1999). The net size during MARMAP was .333mm. After MARMAP. two net sizes were used: .333mm for zooplankton and .505mm for fish eggs and larvae. Tows were for a minimum of five (5) minutes to a maximum depth of 200 meters. If the water depth were less than 200m, then the tow was taken within 5 meters of the bottom. The trawl wire angle was maintained at 45 degrees. Samples were preserved in quart jars in 4 percent formaline. During the MARMAP cruises, a 20cm Bongo was also towed during transecs, above the 61cm Bongo nets, with .165mm and .252mm nets. All frame aperatures had General Oceanic digital flow meters.
Generic Instrument Description
A Bongo Net consists of paired plankton nets, typically with a 60 cm diameter mouth opening and varying mesh sizes, 10 to 1000 micron. The Bongo Frame was designed by the National Marine Fisheries Service for use in the MARMAP program. It consists of two cylindrical collars connected with a yoke so that replicate samples are collected at the same time. Variations in models are designed for either vertical hauls (OI-2500 = NMFS Pairovet-Style, MARMAP Bongo, CalVET) or both oblique and vertical hauls (Aquatic Research). The OI-1200 has an opening and closing mechanism that allows discrete "known-depth" sampling. This model is large enough to filter water at the rate of 47.5 m3/minute when towing at a speed of two knots. More information: Ocean Instruments, Aquatic Research, Sea-Gear

Program Information

National Marine Fisheries Service / Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NMFS/NEFSC)


Coverage: U.S. Continental Shelf


The Northeast Fisheries Science Center is the research arm of NOAA Fisheries in the Northeast region. The Center plans, develops, and manages a multidisciplinary program of basic and applied research to: (1) better understand living marine resources of the Northeast Continental Shelf Ecosystem from the Gulf of Maine to Cape Hatteras, and the habitat quality essential for their existence and continued productivity; and (2) describe and provide to management, industry, and the public, options for the conservation and utilization of living marine resources, and for the restoration and maintenance of marine environmental quality.

 

The functions are carried out through the coordinated efforts of research facilities located in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Washington, DC.

NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service is the federal agency, a division of the Department of Commerce, responsible for the stewardship of the nation's living marine resources and their habitat. NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service is responsible for the management, conservation and protection of living marine resources within the United States' Exclusive Economic Zone (water three to 200 mile offshore). Using the tools provided by the Magnuson-Stevens Act, NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service assesses and predicts the status of fish stocks, ensures compliance with fisheries regulations and works to reduce wasteful fishing practices. Under the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act, NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service recovers protected marine species (i.e. whales, turtles) without unnecessarily impeding economic and recreational opportunities. With the help of the six regional offices and eight councils, NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service is able to work with communities on fishery management issues. NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service works to promote sustainable fisheries and to prevent lost economic potential associated with overfishing, declining species and degraded habitats. NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service strives to balance competing public needs.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administation (NOAA) is an agency that enriches life through science. Our reach goes from the surface of the sun to the depths of the ocean floor as we work to keep citizens informed of the changing environment around them.

From daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings and climate monitoring to fisheries management, coastal restoration and supporting marine commerce, NOAA's products and services support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America's gross domestic product. NOAA's dedicated scientists use cutting-edge research and high-tech instrumentation to provide citizens, planners, emergency managers and other decision makers with reliable information they need when they need it.

NOAA's roots date back to 1807, when the Nation's first scientific agency, the Survey of the Coast, was established. Since then, NOAA has evolved to meet the needs of a changing country. NOAA maintains a presence in every state and has emerged as an international leader on scientific and environmental matters.

NOAA's mission touches the lives of every American and we are proud of our role in protecting life and property and conserving and protecting natural resources.
