Generalized browse graphics were generated by the NODC and are included with the data. The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) and the NOAA Coastal Services Center (now the NOAA Office for Coastal Management) utilized the acoustic, grab, and SPI information (collected in 2002, 2003, and 2004) to characterize benthic habitats by Catlett and Goodwin Islands on the York River, and to examine relationships between animal communities and sediment characteristics. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0090253 Preview graphic PNG 0090253 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2012-05-11 publication AMPHIPODA ANIMALS - GROUP - NUMBER IN GROUP BENTHIC COMMUNITIES BENTHIC SPECIES BENTHIC SPECIES - TAXA COUNTS biological data BIVALVES BOTTOM TYPE HABITAT HABITAT - BENTHIC HABITAT - SEDIMENT SIZE MOLLUSKS SEDIMENTS SHELLFISH SHORELINE SPECIES COUNT PER SAMPLE SPECIES IDENTIFICATION theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS camera sediment sampler - grab instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS benthic biological composition & location derived products GIS product sediment analysis survey - biological theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS US DOC/NOAA/NOS/Coastal Services Center dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS US DOC/NOAA/NOS/Coastal Services Center dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS COASTAL project NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS Chesapeake Bay Mid-Atlantic Bight North American Coastline-South North Atlantic Ocean place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NODC > National Oceanographic Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DOC/NOAA/NOS/CSC > Coastal Services Center, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 23 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
