Row Type	Variable Name	Attribute Name	Data Type	Value
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	access_formats	String	.htmlTable,.csv,.json,.mat,.nc,.tsv,.esriCsv,.geoJson
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	acquisition_description	String	Using a pumping system appended to the CTD unit, measured water volumes (typically 40 liters) were sampled at descrete depths and filtered through 40 micron mesh prior to sorting. A subsample of the filtered sample was used for the zooplankton counts and identification. The size of the subsample varied and depended on the amount of zooplankton present - subsamples were larger when there were fewer animals.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_dataset_instrument_description	String	EL9905: Pump samples were taken by attaching one end of a 5 cm x 60 m reinforced hose to the CTD/rosette frame so that the hose opening was near (within ~0.25 m of) the CTD sensors. The CTD was lowered to depth (usually 50 m) and stopped at discrete sampling depths at 5 m intervals up to a depth of 5 m. Time was given for the system to clear at each new depth before sampling. A gas-powered diaphragm pump delivered water from sampling depths to the surface at a nominal rate of 0.3 m3/min. This water passed into a small, rapidly draining reservoir (0.13 m3) on deck to dampen the surge. This reservoir also was drained between sampling depths. A 1.9 cm ID hose carried water from the reservoir to individual samplers equipped with 40 um mesh nets. An electronic timer and flow meter installed in the 1.9 cm hose was started and stopped for each sample, providing very high accuracy measurements of the volumes filtered. The final sampling rate averaged 13 l/min, and most samples were filtered from 27-33 l of water. Samples were preserved in 3-5% buffered formalin.
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_dataset_instrument_nid	String	5241
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_description	String	This kind of diaphragm pump, manufactured by Homelite and run on gasoline, is called a positive displacement pump because it pumps a specific volume for each pump cycle. Diaphragm pumps move fluids more slowly than centrifugal pumps but treat the animals more gently and they can handle thicker mud and larger amounts of solids. They also tolerate air being drawn into the pump and can be run dry without damage. In 2002, Homelite was acquired and became Riverside Pump Manufacturing, Inc. Diaphragm pumps feature a straight through self priming design and the rubber elastomer diaphragm and flapper valves are easily replaced on site.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_1_dataset_instrument_description	String	Earlier three deployments: The end of a sampling hose was attached near the bottom of the CTD rosette frame. The hose was lowered independently over the side using the CTD to control depth and record conditions throughout sampling. A system was used that delivered approximately 255 l min-1 to the deck and cleared in less than 1 minute. Lines were allowed to clear between samples. On deck the water passed through a manifold and a reduced volume, 31 l min-1, was passed through a succession of small sampling nets with 40 µm mesh. Variations in flow, which are generally small, were monitored with a flow meter on one of the main lines from the manifold and were used to adjust flow rate calculations. Sampling in the small nets was timed with a stop watch, with a target of 1 minute (31 l) per sampled depth. Samples (up to 12 per cast) were preserved in a small volume of buffered formalin for later analysis.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	projects_0_description	String	The U.S. GLOBEC Georges Bank Program is a large multi- disciplinary multi-year oceanographic effort. The proximate goal is to understand the population dynamics of key species on the Bank - Cod, Haddock, and two species of zooplankton (Calanus finmarchicus and Pseudocalanus) - in terms of their coupling to the physical environment and in terms of their predators and prey. The ultimate goal is to be able to predict changes in the distribution and abundance of these species as a result of changes in their physical and biotic environment as well as to anticipate how their populations might respond to climate change. The effort is substantial, requiring broad-scale surveys of the entire Bank, and process studies which focus both on the links between the target species and their physical environment, and the determination of fundamental aspects of these species' life history (birth rates, growth rates, death rates, etc). Equally important are the modelling efforts that are ongoing which seek to provide realistic predictions of the flow field and which utilize the life history information to produce an integrated view of the dynamics of the populations. The U.S. GLOBEC Georges Bank Executive Committee (EXCO) provides program leadership and effective communication with the funding agencies.
