CTD data from 2008 Long Island Sound cruise Dataset Description: <p>CTD data are provided for 6 stations sampled in Long Island Sound on 13 August 2008. Data include temperature, density, salinity, fluorescence, and oxygen saturation along a depth gradient.</p> Methods and Sampling: <p>Sample stations were selected to represent a range of variation in depth, salinity, and vertical stratification. At each station, measurements were made with a SeaBird CTD for the purpose of creating density profiles.</p>
<p>Stations and methods are further described in the following publication:<br />

Testing hypotheses about diversity, gene flow, and effective population size in marine planktonic ciliates

Testing hypotheses about diversity, gene flow, and effective population size in marine planktonic ciliates
<p>The microbial ecologist Tom Fenchel recently said, “The decoupling of molecular and classical (including experimental) approaches to environmental microbiology has not been fruitful and it represents one of the most important challenges for the field in the coming years.” (Fenchel 2005). Classical approaches center on the centuries-old tradition of describing individual species via meticulous observation and analysis to generate monographs, such as is done for plants and animals. Unfortunately, the rush to new molecular techniques has sometimes ignored this tradition, with claims about new lineages never seen before and reports of staggering diversity of microbial eukaryotes based on environmental DNA samples not backed up by even the most elementary microscopic observations.</p>
<p>In the face of this disconnect between the traditional and the molecular, we propose a marriage of the two approaches in the study of marine ciliate diversity and gene flow. Our own data show that in some clades of planktonic ciliates (Strombidiidae) there is indeed a high level of molecular diversity underlying a relatively small number of morphospecies. In other clades (some choreotrichs), the opposite appears to be true, with morphological heterogeneity underlain by apparently clonal lines, based on molecular data. Currently, we do not understand what sustains diversity in some clades; nor do we know why other clades show low diversity. But this problem is amenable to both experimental and observational approaches.</p>
<p>This proposal uses a two-pronged approach, combining molecular (clone libraries, DGGE,FISH) and traditional (light microscopy) techniques to address three broad questions:<br />
<b>i.</b> What are the most important physical and biological factors that affect distribution and diversity of planktonic marine ciliates?<br />
<b>ii.</b> What is the effective population size for marine ciliate populations, and how does this compare to census population sizes?<br />
<b>iii.</b> How well do traditional morphological descriptions of ciliate species fare when compared with molecular characterizations?</p>
<p>Using a combination of molecular and microscopy methods, we will address these questions in coastal planktonic ciliates. Analyses of the resulting data will yield insights into the nature of ciliate species and patterns of gene flow within the North Atlantic.</p>

<p>Data were processed with the SeaSoft program from SeaBird and smoothed by binning at 0.1 m intervals. BCO-DMO made the following modifications to the dataset: format of parameter names was changed to conform to BCO-DMO conventions; blanks and values of&nbsp; '-9.99E-29' were replaced with 'nd'; lat and lon values were converted from degrees/decimal minutes to decimal degrees. Note: lat and lon values are approximate for Station 2.</p>
