At each station we sampled zooplankton using a 1m^2 Tucker Sled with 333 micron mesh nets. One net was fished entirely along the bottom. The second net collected zooplankton from the bottom to the surface. Inside this second net was a 150 micron mesh, 25 cm diamter Clarke-Bumpus net to collect the smaller zooplankton species. Both Tucker nets had a calibrated General Oceanics flow meter mounted inside the net mouth. A SeaBird FastCat (SBE 49) was attached to the top of the Tucker Sled to determine the depth of the samplers in real time and to measure temperature and conductivity. A multi-frequecy acoustic systems (TAPS-6) was also mounted on the top of the sled frame for acoustic determination of zooplankton biomass and size composition. The device insonified a small volume directly in the path of the net. During the cruise we recovered a multi-frequency acoustic device that had been moored off of Icy Cape for almost one year and then deployed two more acoustic devices to overwinter. The objective of our portion of this cruise was to conduct a plankton survey in the region to describe the patterns and processes most likely affecting the distribution of krill, the major food item for baleen whales: Other BOEMRE-funded components of the project were examing the physical (hydrography, currents) and chemical oceanography (nutrients), and the distribution of marine mammals and seabirds. completed Bahl, Kimberly 206 526 4314 kimberly.bahl@noaa.gov pointOfContact Bahl, Kimberly 206 526 4314 kimberly.bahl@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded Obsolete Data Set theme PARR Exclusion Arctic cod Biological data Euphausiids Fish Fish eggs Fish juveniles Fish larvae Ichthyoplankton Multi-frequency acoustics Oceanographic data Pacific cod Plankton Saffron cod SeaBird CTD SeaBird FastCAT CTD Tucker Sled Zooplankton theme Arctic Ocean Barrow Canyon Bering Strait Chukchi Sea place DOC/NOAA/NMFS/AFSC > Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
