Lancetfish specimens were collected by fisheries observers of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Pacific Islands Region and West Coast Region Observer Programs from 2018 to 2023 between 20 – 40° N and 115 – 160° W in the central and eastern North Pacific Ocean. The data were used to examine patterns of mercury bioaccumulation in lancetfish and evaluate the use of lancetfish as a biomonitoring species of mercury in the deep sea.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nspecimen_id (unitless)\ndate (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nFL_mm (millimeters (mm))\nwhole_mass_g (grams (g))\nsize_class (unitless)\ntissue_type (unitless)\npercent_moisture (percentage (%))\nTHg_wet_ng_g (nanogram per gram (ng/g))\nhg_notes (unitless)\nMeHg_wet_ng_g (nanogram per gram (ng/g))\nmehg_type (unitless)\npercent_mehg (percentage (%))\n | BCO-DMO | bcodmo_dataset_948929_v1 |
