<div><p>Samples were collected in a perimeter of ~1 km offshore of the discharge channel of Carlsbad Desalination Plant, Carlsbad Beach, California (33°08'18.9"N 117°20'21.3"W).</p>
<p>Samples were collected in four trips:<br />
Pre-discharge: Dec 2nd-4th 2014 and Sep 21st-24th 2015.<br />
Post-discharge: May 9th-12th 2016 and Nov 8th-11th 2016</p>
<p>Transect lines were deployed going from the discharge channel (Outflow) and the Intake to 1000 m offshore. Sampling was done every 25 m until 200 m offshore, then at 400, 600, 800 and 1000 m (“stations”). The "Parallel" transect ran continuous parallel to the beach ~200 m offshore and samples stations were deployed every ~100 m. Station 1 is the southern-most sampling point (south of discharge channel). At each station surface (~1 m depth) and bottom water samples were taken and a sediment sample. Bottom samples were collected at a depth range of 4m - 17m.</p>
<p>The benthic surveys were done continuously at the first 200 m offshore if water conditions allowed. At station 400, 600, 800 and 1000 and on the parallel stations, ten 1x1m quadrates were deployed. Organisms larger than 2.5 cm were counted. Organisms identified in the following classes were counted: Sponge, Anthozoa, Gastropoda, Clam, octopus, Polychaete, Echinodermata, Arthropoda, fish and algae.</p></div>
Benthic macrofauna species distribution, 2014-2016
<div><p>This dataset contains the percent distribution of macrofauna species counted along transects and in 1mx1m quadrats at the Carlsbad Desalination Plant, obtained in December 2014, Sept. 2015, May 2016 and November 2016.</p>

Macrofauna species distribution
<div><p>The organisms counted for each species were summed for each sampling site and the percent distribution calculated.</p>
<p><strong>BCO-DMO Processing:</strong><br />
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date<br />
- modified parameters to BCO-DMO standard<br />
- renamed parameter: Fieldtrip to date_Fieldtrip; Algea to Algae<br />
- added year column</p></div>
