| log in | [EPR pump time series] - Larvae and suspended benthic fauna collected with a plankton pump near deep-sea hydrothermal vents at the East Pacific Rise from 1998 to 2025 (Effects of Disturbance and Larval Supply on Communities at Hydrothermal Vents) | This dataset provides the counts for larvae and some later life stage benthic fauna, identified to varying levels of taxonomic granularity, collected with a large-volume plankton pump near deep-sea hydrothermal vents on the East Pacific Rise on 13 cruises from 1998 to 2025. Sampling for this 27-year time series of larval abundance was conducted using a plankton pump (McLane WTS-LV50) filtering up to ~40 cubic meters over 63-micron mesh. Specimens were preserved in ethanol and identified morphologically under a dissecting microscope. Samples were sorted completely, thus concentrations per taxon may be derived from the counts and volume filtered. The primary data file is a single compiled table with the leftmost columns as a Darwin Core Occurrence extension table and rightmost columns from a Darwin Core Event core table; these are provided separately as two additional files formatted for the Ocean Biodiversity Information System.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\noccurrenceID (unitless)\nverbatimIdentification (unitless)\nindividualCount (integer count)\nscientificName (unitless)\nscientificNameID (unitless)\ntaxonRank (unitless)\nclass (unitless)\nphylum (unitless)\nkingdom (unitless)\nidentifiedBy (unitless)\noccurrenceStatus (unitless)\nbasisOfRecord (unitless)\neventID (unitless)\nsampleSizeValue (liter)\nsampleSizeUnit (unitless)\neventDate (seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nverbatimEventDate (unitless)\nlocality (unitless)\n...
