©2026 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.Data from weekly mysid survey that focused on tracking in-situ mysid numbers in shallow water habitat over time. All data was collected in Solomons, MD at the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory's research pier using an epi-benthic sled with 500um mesh from June to September 2022-2024 on a weekly basis (except where noted in comment field). Individual transect pulls were conducted in the same location, direction and distance and designated as shallow vs. deeper shallow habitat. This dataset incl...

All sampling was done in Solomons, MD at the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory's research pier using an epi-benthic sled from May to September 2022-2024 on a weekly basis (except where noted in comment field). Individual transect pulls were conducted in the same location, direction and distance and designated as shallow vs. deeper shallow habitat.
Samples were collected using a hand-pulled epi-benthic sled with 500 μm mesh size net. Once collected, the contents of the net was hand-picked of all mysids and counted.
Animals collected: Mysidae, non-speciated
