Sampling followed several planned releases of freshwater from the Caernarvon diversion structure during the winter of 2000 and spring of 2001 as part of a larger study to examine the ecological effect of pulsed freshwater releases on the ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to document springtime habitat conditions and distributional patterns of brown shrimp and other species of nekton in the vicinity of the Caernarvon Diversion Structure. completed Baumer, Tim J 409-766-3784 4700 Avenue U Galveston TX 77551 tim.baumer@noaa.gov Contact by email preferred. pointOfContact Rozas, Lawrence P Contact by email preferred. custodian asNeeded Penaeus aztecus Penaeus duorarum Penaeus setiferus theme World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > GULF OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 Environmental Data Farfantepenaeus aztecus Farfantepenaeus duorarum Habitat characteristics Land/Ocean Exchanges Litopenaeus setiferus Physical Measures Sediments Physical Measures Water abundance biomass sampling brown shrimp crabs distribution drop sampler estuarine dependent fish habitat recovery data invertebrates nekton nursery areas nursery habitat pink shrimp salt marsh white shrimp theme 2001 temporal Breton Sound Gulf of Mexico Louisiana place DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast 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.

A text file was created to describe these data and associated variables. Entered data were checked against the field sheets by two biologists to minimize entry errors. Samples were processed in the laboratory, sorted, specimens identified and measured, and information was entered into an Excel spreadsheet or DBF file. Files were printed out and compared against original data sheets by two biologists for data entry errors. Corrections were made at this time, the electronic file was saved, and a back-up copy made. Hard copies of the QCd files were printed and stored in the project folder along with the original field and laboratory data sheets. The electronic file was also sorted and examined by the Lab Supervisor or other project personnel in a variety of ways to look for outliers, missing data, and other potential errors. Verified data files were then saved electronically on the Galveston Laboratory server and backed-up as needed.
