Sci. 63(3): 481-501.is provided as a link and is based upon this data During September 20-23, 1993 and May 9-12, 1994, a total of 200 samples were collected at proposed dredge disposal sites along the Intercoastal Waterway in Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, Texas. Vegetated habitats supported significantly higher densities of most numerically dominant species. Nekton mean size also differed among habitats. Estimate relative nursery values of Spartina alterniflora salt marsh, seagrass, and shallow non-vegetated habitats. completed Baumer, Tim J 409-766-3784 4700 Avenue U Galveston TX 77551 tim.baumer@noaa.gov Contact by email preferred. pointOfContact Ditty, James 409-766-3782 409-766-3508 4700 Avenue U Galveston TX 77551-5997 Jim.Ditty@noaa.gov phone or email custodian notPlanned EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > OCEAN TEMPERATURE > WATER TEMPERATURE theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 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 Coastal Waters Of Texas Gulf of Mexico place NODC SEA AREA NAMES Farfantepenaeus aztecus Farfantepenaeus duorarum Litopenaeus setiferus abundance brown shrimp caridean shrimp crabs distribution dredge disposal fish invertebrates macrofauna pink shrimp predator prey salt marsh seagrass submerged aquatic vegetation white shrimp theme 1993-1994 temporal Aransas Bay Aransas National Wildlife Refuge Ayres Island Blackjack Peninsula Bludworth Island Carlos Bay False Live Oak Island Gulf Intracoastal Waterway Longuard Tube Site Mesquite Bay Mitchell Site Rattlesnake Island Southend Bay place 1.14-m diameter cylindrical drop sampler American Optical temperature compensated refractometer YSI Model 51B meter meter stick sediment core sampler instrument 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.

Entered data were checked against field data sheets to minimize entry errors. Samples were processed in the laboratory. After samples were sorted, and specimens identified and measured, information was entered into an Excel spreadsheet or DBF file, and printed out. Quality control was provided by comparing entered data against the specimen identification (ID) sheet by one biologist reading from the ID sheet and a second biologist checking the data print-out. Corrections were made at this time, saved, and a back-up copy made. otherRestrictions otherRestrictions Access Constraints: None | Use Constraints: Please cite properly YSI Model 51B Dissolved Oxygen Meter Dissolved Oxygen Meter Dissolved oxygen meters (DO) are available in handheld and benchtop models.
