Expand/Collapse All

Description

Cruise log of R/V Gaia plankton cruises in the nearshore Southern California region between April 22nd and October 4th of 2016.

Methods & Sampling

Cruise area is Southern California nearshore, depths 0-~14 m water depth.

Offshore Calumet Park, La Jolla, Southern California, USA within the box delimited by the following points:

NE 32° 48.677'N, 117° 16.195'W
SE 32° 48.568'N, 117° 16.145'W
SW 32° 48.421'N, 117° 16.738'W
NW 32° 48.619'N, 117° 16.842'W

Notes:

* In the "comment" column, "swell" is an identifier of conditions (higher wave conditions, but this is a subjective identifier). * 'rep' indicates a replicate and refers to when we replicated the entire sampling scheme (corresponds to a different date).

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO data manager processing notes:
Data version 1: 2017-10-06
* Added ISO 8601 formatted timestamp.
* rounded depth three decimal places.
* rounded lat/lon to five decimal places.
* added the original sheet names from original .xls file as the column "comment"

Data version 2: 2017-10-22
* Data the same as version 1 but sorted by timestamp
