Juvenile Rockfish Survey (JRS) 2009- collected data from May 20, 2009 to June 25, 2009 sampling 1,056 nmi of ocean habitat. JRS samples hydrographic conditions, zooplankton (including krill) and young of the year (YOY) rockfish (Sebastes spp.) and other micronekton using CTD casts, Tucker trawls, and mid-water trawls (MWT), respectively, at a series of stations along the continental shelf from southern to northern California (data courtesy of SWFSC: Sakuma et al. 2006, Field et al. 2010, Santora et al. 2012).
Zooplankton Survey 2009- collected data from March 23, 2009 to April 09, 2009 sampling 2,208 nmi of ocean habitat. A multi frequency echo sounder was used to detect and quantify micronekton in the water column. The survey also collected a range of samples such as hydrographic conditions (CTD casts), zooplankton (including krill) and other micronekton in bongo and vertical nets (raw data courtesy of NWFSC: Mackas et al., 2004).
Zooplankton Survey 2009- collected data from August 11, 2009 to August 19, 2009 sampling 1,327 nmi of ocean habitat. A multi frequency echo sounder was used to detect and quantify micronekton in the water column. The survey also collected a range of samples such as hydrographic conditions (CTD casts), zooplankton (including krill) and other micronekton in bongo and vertical nets (raw data courtesy of NWFSC: Mackas et al., 2004).
