AFSC/ABL: BSIERP Seasonal Bioenergetics from Bering Sea 2008-2012

Description:

Abstract:

The work conducted under the Seasonal Bioenergetics Project (B54) was aimed at understanding how juvenile pollock, Pacific cod, and arrowtooth flounder use energy over their first year of life and how that use relates to climatic conditions in the southeastern Bering Sea (SEBS). Juvenile fish at high latitudes need to allocate energy between the conflicting demands of growth and storage during their first year of life. Understanding how they resolve those demands, be measuring their lipid and energy content, provides an index into the relative importance of growth in the near term and starvation in the long term as factors determining their survival. At the start of this project we had relatively little information of this sort for these species, particularly in the SEBS.

Purpose:

This database contains lipid and energy content information for juvenile pollock, Pacific cod, and ATF.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report: See logical consistancy report for QAQC measures

Logical_Consistency_Report:

For energy density samples, the mean benzoic acid value was calculated within 0.5% of 6318 cal/g (6286.41 - 6349.59). The CV% (coefficient of variation) was calculated less than or equal to 0.57% for large pellet and 1.57% for small pellet. If mean value exceeded this limit, 5 more EE values were run to replace the first 5 with new values. Again if the mean value is out of range 5 more EE values were run, this time replacing the last 5 values with the new values. This was continued in alteration between first and last 5 values until your EE falls into the range.
For lipid samples, the 5 quality control samples include sand, sample duplicate, pollock reference, herring reference, and method blank. All QAQC samples must be within preset limitations, contact point of contact for detailed methodolgy.

Completeness_Report:

Nothing was omitted from database, all samples planned for analyses were completed.

Methodology:

Methodology_Type: Lab

Methodology_Description:

For fish preperation; Clean fish of external debris (i.e. ice chunks) then weigh to nearest 0.001 grams and measure fork length to nearest mm. Open body cavity and excise stomach making sure to cut esophagus as close to the throat, behind the gills, as possible. Remove pyloric cecae, spleen, and other attached tissues. Remove contents and return stomach lining to body cavity. Cut fish into small pieces and place in grinding beaker. Homogonize fish to consistant slurry and place appropriate amounts into labeled vials.
