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. These data were collected as part of a project to determine how the behavior of individual zooplankters affects their vertical distribution, over hourly temporal and 1-meter spatial scales. The net samples were collected to determine the vertical distribution of females of two species of copepod, Calanus pacificus and Metridia pacifica, and to estimate their flux into and out of the chlorophyll-rich surface mixed layer.
