SNACS: Environmental Variability, Bowhead Whale Distributions, and Inupiat Subsistence Whaling - biological data

This data set contains mesozooplankton abundance from net tows conducted during the Study of the Northern Alaska Coastal System (SNACS) cruises, August - September 2005 and 2006 in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas, off the coast of Barrow, Alaska. Each data set presents abundances of all taxa, including copepodite stages for the copepods, as # per m-3 and includes station number, date, position (latitude, longitude), and depth for each tow.
