Abundance data for the copepod species Calanus pacificus and Metridia pacifica collected at a fixed station in Dabob Bay, Hood Canal, Puget Sound, Washington during six cruises aboard the CLIFFORD A. BARNES, October 2006 - April 2008 (NCEI Accession 0058858)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 06, 2026 at 01:05 AM | Dataset Last Updated: October 20, 2009 at 12:00 AM
This dataset includes abundance data for females of the copepod species Calanus pacificus and Metridia pacifica, collected from closing vertical ring net tows conducted during 6 cruises to Dabob Bay, WA in 2006 - 2008 at a single fixed station in Puget Sound WA (47 46.14N, 122 50.10W). Nets were Puget Sound-type ring nets, with diameters of either 50 cm, 60 cm, or 1 m, depending on the cruise and the operation. These samples were collected for NSF the funded project, NSF OCE-0525943 "Forays and foraging by marine zooplankton". Samples were collected primarily at night, but occasional day time samples (for comparison of vertical distribution) were made on some cruises.
