Summary
Description
The Nutritional Ecology Laboratory maintains a database containing all of the biochemical data we collect. The database includes seasonal information regarding size, age, location, date, developmental stage, and maturity status of all the specimens we have examined. Samples range from phytoplankton to whales and seals. Depending on the objectives of specific studies, these data can be matched to measures of energy content, proximate, lipid class, and fatty acid composition.
