NODC Accession 0105810 includes tows - plankton tows and biological data collected aboard NOAA Ship ALBATROSS IV, ENDEAVOR and OCEANUS during cruises AL9505, AL9506, AL9508, AL9605, AL9607, AL9701, AL9705, AL9707, AL9801, AL9806, AL9808, AL9901, AL9904, AL9906, EN261, EN263, EN265, EN276, EN278, EN282, EN320, OC275, OC298, OC300, OC302, OC317, OC319, OC322, OC336 and OC341 in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1995-02-11 to 1999-06-24. These data include INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION - LENGTH and TAXONOMIC CODE. The instruments used to collect these data include Multiple Opening/Closing Net and Environmental Sensing System (MOCNESS). These data were collected by Donna L. Johnson of National Marine Fisheries Service as part of GB. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NODC on 2013-04-24.

The following is the text of the abstract provided by BCO-DMO:

Georges Bank Fish Larvae Data from MOCNESS tows
1Standard Haul Factor: numerical factor (multiplier) used to standardize catches to be expressed as number caught per 10m^2 of sea surface area. Most haul factors range from 1 to 10. The Standard Haul Factor has not been applied to the data reported here.
