The abundance of each zooplankton group was estimated accounting for all sample dilution and extrapolated based on the calculated initial net sampling volume. No further data processing was involved. All data was reviewed by at least one other expert. If outliers were identified all calculations were confirmed and in cases where errors were not obvious the sample was re-counted.

BCO-DMO Processing Notes:
Version 1 [2017-04-28]: (2015 data)
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions
- blank values were replaced with no data value 'nd'
- added columns for cruise id, station, date, time, lat, lon, volume filtered, cast, replicate, splits, taxon_1
Version 2 [2020-02-24] (2015-2017 data)
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions
- blank and ND values were replaced with 'nd'
- date was converted to yyyy-mm-dd and ISO_DateTime_UTC was added
- "Jekyll Is" was replaced with "Jekyll Is" (one space between words)
- replaced blanks with zeroes in 'splits' column
Version 3 [2020-04-08] (2015-2017 data; includes lats/lons)
- added conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
- modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions
- blanks, NO DATA, and ND values were replaced with 'nd'
- date was converted to yyyy-mm-dd and ISO_DateTime_UTC was added
- latitude and longitude were converted from degrees, minutes, seconds to decimal degrees.
