TN249 Microzooplankton Biomass and Composition https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/102.203 Summary Microzooplankton abundance, biomass and general community and size composition were determined in whole seawater samples after samples collected at sea were returned to the laboratory. Data from the R/V Thompson TN249 long spring cruise are reported, along with a summary table of total microzooplankton biomass for 2008, 2009 and 2010 Bering Sea Ecosystem Study-Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Program (BEST-BSIERP) long spring cruises. BEST-BSIERP together are the Bering Sea project. These data are from initial water samples collected for mesozooplankton and dilution grazing assays. Note: The dataset was updated with additional stations on Aug 25, 2011 Identifiers * Local archive identifier: 102.203 * doi:10.5065/D6RN35VQ https://doi.org/10.5065/D6RN35VQ Versions 1.0 Citation Sherr, E., Sherr, B., Sherr, E. 2011.
