The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | An archive of the fish and inveterate data from the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM) juvenile fin-fish survey across 6 Rhode Island salt ponds from 2010-2015 (NCEI Accession 0291929) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected in the North Atlantic Ocean from 2010-01-01 to 2015-12-31. These data include abundance, common_name, and species. The instruments used to collect these data include Seine Net. These data were collected by A. Randall Hughes and Mallarie Yeager of Northeastern University as part of the "CAREER: Linking genetic diversity, population density, and disease prevalence in seagrass and oyster ecosystems (Seagrass and Oyster Ecosystems)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-03-12. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: An archive of the fish and inveterate data from the RIDEM juvenile fin-fish survey across 6 of the Rhode Island salt ponds Dataset Description: This dataset is an archive of the fish and inveterate data from the RIDEM juvenile fin-fish survey across 6 of the Rhode Island salt ponds. |

| Supplementary information: | Acquisition Description: Fish and invertebrate surveys: The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM) provided us with the fish and invertebrate survey data for this study. Beginning in 2010, RIDEM established permanent monitoring stations throughout all six coastal ponds (points on Fig. 1A of Yeager et al., 2020). Communities were sampled monthly from May to October each year via 150 ft beach seine net. Fish and macroinvertebrate individuals were counted, measured, and identified to species. Communities were composed of fishes and invertebrates from multiple trophic levels. Across all ponds, species richness ranged from and 11 to 39 and trophic level ranged from 2.01 – 4.65 (Appendix S1 of Yeager et al., 2020). For the community analysis, we examined species and their abundances averaged across sampling stations to account for dependence within each pond and averaged across months to account for seasonal differences of species presence. To ensure even community sampling across ponds which varied in number of sampling stations, we conducted a species rarefaction test, examining both the rarefaction curves as well as the relationship between the rarefied and observed number of species (Appendix S2 of Yeager et al., 2020). |
