    • Zooplankton biomass and density collected from R/V LAURENTIAN, R/V LAKE GUARDIAN, AND R/V SHENEHON in Lake Michigan in the Great Lakes region from 1994-04-21 to 2004-08-19 (NCEI Accession 0247568)

    Metadata Updated: November 1, 2023

    NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) samples and studies the ecosystem of the lower food web of the Laurentian Great Lakes. This collection contains zooplankton biomass and density data at select 32 stations during the open water season in Lake Michigan from 1994-2004. Zooplankton density is given in the number of organisms per cubic meter and biomass is given in milligrams per cubic meter. This data accession also includes samples collected in support of the NOAA/GLERL Episodic Events - Great Lakes Experiment (EEGLE) from 1998-2001. File formats included in this data package are .csv, shapefiles, and jpg.
