Title: Zooplankton biomass (displacement volumes) collected in the North Pacific during EcoFOCI projects from 1979-09-03 to 2013-09-24, data were acquired from the NMFS-COPEPOD database (NODC Accession 0046299)
Abstract: Plankton biomass from NMFS surveys off Alaska from various platforms in the North Pacific from 1979 to 2000 as part of the EcoFOCI program. EcoFOCI (Ecosystems & Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations) is a joint research program between the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (NOAA/ National Marine Fisheries/ AFSC) and the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (NOAA/Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research/PMEL).
