| Title: | Observed digestion times of Ocyropsis spp. collected from the Gulf Stream during June 2021 (Ocean Ctenos project) (NCEI Accession 0294399) |
| Abstract: | This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected from 2021-06-01 to 2021-06-30. These data include species. The instruments used to collect these data include Camera and Microscope - Optical. These data were collected by John H. Costello of Providence College, Sean Colin of Roger Williams University, Kelly Rakow Sutherland of University of Oregon, and Brad J. Gemmell of University of South Florida as part of the "Collaborative Research: Quantifying the trophic roles of epipelagic ctenophores (Ocean Ctenos)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2024-01-29. The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO: Oceanic Ocyropsis spp. digestion times Dataset Description: Methods and Sampling: Method & Sampling Ctenophores were offered a mixed assemblage of copepods from the genera Acartia , Oncaea , and Microsetella . Digestion time observations were made using a Motic SMZ-171 stereo microscope and began immediately following the first observation of prey ingestion. The number of prey simultaneously digested varied from 3-9 prey. Ctenophore lobe length as well as digestive tract length were recorded. Observations continued every two minutes until digestion was complete. High resolution image series of digestion were also made for several individual ctenophores using a Nikon 750 DLSR camera coupled to the stereo microscope. Complete digestion was defined as the time at which the only visible remains of the copepod prey were chitinous structures. |
