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
