| log in | [ZooProcess and Ecotaxa Output Along Physical Gradients from OAPS] - ZooProcess and Ecotaxa output from ZooSCANs of zooplankton collected along physical gradients during OAPS MOCNESS tows during R/V Oceanus northwest Atlantic 2011 cruise OC473 and R/V New Horizon northeast Pacific 2012 cruise NH1208 and imaged in 2021-2022 (Quantifying the drivers of midwater zooplankton community structure) | This dataset consists of the imaging portion of the study described below and includes ZooProcess and Ecotaxa outputs from ZooSCANs performed of zooplankton collected during Multiple Opening-Closing Net and Environmental Sensing System (MOCNESS) tows during R/V Oceanus cruise OC473 in the Northwestern Atlantic in 2011 and R/V New Horizon cruise NH1208 in the Northeastern Pacific in 2012. It includes data for this project from Ecotaxa (export v1.0), an online machine-learning platform that assists in identifying organisms and particles. The dataset also includes particle measurements generated by ZooProcess software. Day and night stations were sampled between 0 to 1000m depths from 35 to 50 N in the northwest Atlantic in 2011, and from 35 and 50N along CLIVAR line P17N in 2012. These representative subsamples of the formalin-preserved zooplankton community from each net were imaged in 2021 and 2022.\n\nProject description: The objective of this study was to determine how environmental variables shape zooplankton community structure in the midwater. Our primary overarching hypothesis was that the abundance and size class distribution of the zooplankton community are decoupled and are influenced by different environmental variables. Furthermore, differences in zooplankton community composition and diversity in the observed distinct oceanic biogeographical provinces additionally influences both factors. Since zooplankton contributions to biogeochemistry are size dependent, standard descriptions of zooplankton community (biomass, which is a product of size and abundance) are insufficient to generate a predictive understanding of the role of zooplankton in biogeochemical cycles. The project uses particle imaging technology and metabarcoding of archived biological samples in conjunction with open access hydrographic data from two cruises conducted in the N. Atlantic and N. Pacific to test these hypotheses.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nobject_id (unitless)\nlatitude (Object_lat_start, degrees_north)\nlongitude (Object_lon_start, degrees_east)\nobject_date (unitless)\nobject_time (unitless)\ntime (Object_iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\n...

| log in | [ZooProcess and Ecotaxa Output for Zooplankton Mediated Aggregates] - ZooProcess and Ecotaxa output from ZooSCANs of zooplankton collected with MOCNESS tows during six R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises from 2021 to 2023 (Collaborative Research: Zooplankton mediation of particle formation in the Sargasso Sea) | This dataset consists of ZooProcess and Ecotaxa outputs from ZooSCANs of plankton caught in the upper 600m using Multiple Opening-Closing Net and Environmental Sensing System (MOCNESS) tows during day- and night-time. It includes data for this project from Ecotaxa (export v1.0), an online machine-learning platform that assists in identifying organisms and particles. The dataset also includes particle measurements generated by ZooProcess software. These samples were collected and processed over two years, with three cruises a year to capture distinct seasons. The goal of this data was to assess high-resolution vertical distribution of zooplankton in order to distinguish diel vertical migrators from resident populations and to quantify contributions to particulate organic carbon flux via fecal pellet production. \n\nProject description: The oceanic biological carbon pump refers to the export of dissolved and particulate organic carbon to the deep ocean, and it is a significant driver of atmospheric carbon uptake by the oceans. Evidence from long-term research carried out at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site suggests that the spectrum of particles collected by gel-traps below the euphotic zone changes drastically below 150 m, which is attributed to resident populations of zooplankton that feed on vertically migrating zooplankton as well as sinking particles. The goals of this study are to investigate the role of different zooplankton taxa on both particle aggregate formation and in particle transformation, and to compare and characterize the particles generated by the zooplankton communities with those collected by particle traps.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nobject_id (unitless)\nlatitude (Object_lat_start, degrees_north)\nlongitude (Object_lon_start, degrees_east)\nobject_date (unitless)\nobject_time (unitless)\ntime (Object_iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nobject_link (unitless)\nobject_depth_min (Meters)\nobject_depth_max (Meters)\n...
