Abstract

This dataset includes size-binned particle abundance and biovolume from FlowCam runs on the "SalpPOOP" cruise on R/V Tangaroa during October and November 2018.

Note: A less condensed dataset containing all particle size, volume, and converted biomass values from each FlowCam run is also available in the related dataset "FlowCam Particle Sizes" (https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/881563).
