ICES/GLOBEC Sea-going Workshop for Intercalibration of Plankton Samplers (A compilation of data, metadata and visual material): associated files
Field data collected during the Storfjorden gear intercomparison study, as well as relevant text, images, and videos. These represent one of the tangible results of the ICES Sea-going Workshop held on board the Research Vessels “Johan Hjort” and “A.v. Humboldt” in June 1993.
These files were contained on 4 CD-ROMs published as part of Cooperative Research Report 250, ICES/GLOBEC Sea-going Workshop for Intercalibration of Plankton Samplers (A compilation of data, metadata and visual material): report
Contents
CD-ROM 1 contains most of the data which has been analysed from the Sea-going Workshop including:
- Hydrography and environmental data, including CTD data, plant pigments, relative and surface light and meteorological data;
- Zooplankton biomass, species counts and length/weight information;
- Phytoplankton species counts including relative abundance information;
- Data collected from the Optical Plankton Counter;
- Pictures of the work at sea;
- A 20-minute video, Zooplankton Sampling, in MPEG format.
Included are two reports in PDF format: (1) the original plan and (2) the preliminary results. These are also attached as Appendix 1 and Appendix 2, respectively, to this report.
CD-ROM 2 contains selected acoustics files from the first portion of the cruise. The acoustics files are available in four frequencies: 18 kHz, 38 kHz (from both vessel-mounted and towed transducers), 120 kHz, and 200 kHz.
CD-ROM 3 contains more acoustics files from the first portion of the cruise. CD-ROM 3 contains the 38 kHz, the towed body 38 kHz, and the 120 kHz data as well as Matlab files and instructions about how to display the data using those files.
CD-ROM 4 contains the same video available on CD-ROM1, but in a different higher resolution format.
