Mesozooplankton Abundance and Biomass [Ashjian, C. and R. Campbell]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/13.833

Summary
This data set contains mesozooplankton biomass and abundance from net tows
conducted during the SHEBA drift experiment. Two data sets are archived. The
first, SHEBA_ALLTAXA.xls, presents total displacement volume biomass as both
dry weight (mg dw m-3) and carbon (mg C m-3) and abundances of all taxa,
including copepodite stages for the copepods, as # m-3. The second data set,
SHEBA_NapuliarCounts.xls, presents the stage specific naupliar abundances for
the dominant copepod taxa as integrated abundance (# m-2) in each depth
interval.
