Zooplankton Biomass On The West Florida Shelf, July 2010 – August 2014, Kendra L. Daly Aug 2016

Zooplankton Biomass On The West Florida Shelf, July 2010 – August 2014, Kendra L. Daly

C-IMAGE data

Zooplankton have high temporal and spatial variability. Therefore, they need to be assessed before oil impact and regularly thereafter, to interpret what changes are causally related to oil spills. We surveyed plankton using bongo net tows and the USF SIPPER imaging system to evaluate the variation in plankton abundance on the west Florida shelf and the northern Gulf of Mexico. Seasonal CTD, chlorophyll, nutrient, and zooplankton abundance data from the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and the west Florida shelf. Developed new algorithms for data mining SIPPER (Shadow Imaging Particle Profiler and Evaluation Recorder) camera particle imaging data.


Zooplankton Dry Weight Biomass Data For The Northeastern Gulf Of Mexico And West Florida Shelf: June 2012 – August 2014, Kendra L. Daly May 2016

Zooplankton Dry Weight Biomass Data For The Northeastern Gulf Of Mexico And West Florida Shelf: June 2012 – August 2014, Kendra L. Daly

C-IMAGE data

This dataset contains zooplankton dry weight biomass calculated from samples collected during RV Weatherbird II and RV Bellows cruises from June 2012 to August 2014. Zooplankton was collected using towed bongo nets from the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and the west Florida shelf. The contents of the dataset are an assessment of the seasonal and interannual changes in zooplankton biomass after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
