Description

Bacteriology data were collected using moored buoy casts and other instruments in the Delaware Bay and North Atlantic Ocean from November 5, 1976 to August 16, 1977. Data were submitted by Virginia Institute of Marine Science - Gloucester Point as part of the Ocean Continental Shelf (OCS-Mid Atlantic Ocean) project. Data has been been processed by NODC to the standard NODC F009- Bacteriology formats. Full format descriptions are available from NODC homepage at https://intra.nodc.noaa.gov/Information/Teams/apd_info/md_improvement _project2004/MULDARS_FGDCs/F009.txt The F009 format is designed to support bacteriological studies of the water column and ocean bottom. Information on environmental conditions, physical measurements of the water and sediment, and denisty of heterotrophic, hydrocarbonclastic, and halophilic bacteria are presented. The format contains five data record types, each 80 characters in length, sorted by station ad sequence numbers. The first nine columns for all records are to be used for file name (columns 1-3) and file identifier (columns 4-9). The file identifier, to be assigned by the orginator, is an unique originator id for each data submission. After submission, the NODCreassigns to this field an unique NODC indentifier for internal use.

Description

Geological samples collected as part of the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf (ECS) Project are curated by the U.S. Geological Survey, a partner in the ECS Project. To date, dredges and cores have been collected from the Arctic Ocean floor, and small sediment samples have also been collected from the Bering Sea. According to ECS policy, application can be made by qualified researchers to the ECS Samples Curator to obtain portions of these samples for study. Related sample data, information, and images generated at sea, during ECS post-cruise working parties, and other research results are available for public access via the ECS Information Management System (ECS IMS) website maintained by NOAA's NCEI. Both ECS samples and related data are searchable through the Index to Marine and Lacustrine Geological Samples (IMLGS) database maintained by NCEI.

Description

Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps are an integral component in oil-spill contingency planning and assessment. They serve as a source of information in the event of an oil spill incident. ESI maps contain three types of information: shoreline habitats (classified according to their sensitivity to oiling), sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. Most often, this information is plotted on 7.5 minute USGS quadrangles, although in the Alaska ESI maps, USGS topographic maps at scales of 1:63,360 and 1:250,000 are used, and in other ESI maps, NOAA charts have been used as the base map. Collections of these maps, grouped by state or a logical geographic area, are published as ESI atlases. Digital data have been published for most of the U.S. shoreline, including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico.

Description

Samples of zooplankton taken at 12 stations around Marion and Prince Edward Islands (47oS - 35oE) in March 1976 from the 'Marion-Dufresne' and at 2 stations in the same area in November 1976 from the 'R.S.A.' have been studied. Twenty species of Copepoda and a number of other organisms are recorded. The copepod community represented is Antarctic rather than sub-antarctic in character in some respects. It is suggested that this peculiar species composition may result from the upwelling of water from deeper levels in the lee of the islands. The greatest numbers of organisms per cubic meter of water is recorded in areas between 100 and 175 meters deep. Some species show evidence of vertical migration. Zooplankton biomass ranged from 8.7 to 34.9 mg/m3 with a mean of 18.3 mg/m3 for vertical hauls ranging from 30-0 m to 300-0 m with a 50 cm diameter WP II net.

Description

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has the statutory mandate to collect hydrographic data in support of nautical chart compilation for safe navigation and to provide background data for engineers, scientific, and other commercial and industrial activities. Hydrographic survey data primarily consist of water depths, but may also include features (e.g. rocks, wrecks), navigation aids, shoreline identification, and bottom type information. NOAA is responsible for archiving and distributing the source data as described in this metadata record.

Description

MODIS data is used to develop an index of the amount of chromophoric dissolved organic material (CDOM) in the surface waters. CDOM absorbs heavily in the blue wavelengths and thus can skew many derived products, especially in coastal waters. THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCT: intended strictly for scientific evaluation by professional marine scientists.

Description

Copepoda formed the predominant group except in the southern region where a swarm of pelagic tunicates reduced their contribution to only 19% of the total zooplankton count. Decapod larvae occurred in fairly large numbers all along the coastal adn neritic regions of the southwestern Bay of Bengal. Other groups like chaetognaths, ostracods, amphipods, euphausiids, fish eggs, fish larvae, polychaetes, cladocerans, planktonic molluscs, etc. contributed to a lesser percentage of the general composition of zooplankton. Upwelling along the southern part of the western Bay of Bengal during this season may account for the rich zooplankton population towards the south.
