Description
Continuous Phytoplankton Recorder Survey by NOAA in the Northwest Atlantic, the Gulf of Maine and the Mid Atlantic Bight. more
Phytoplankton samples were collected by continuous plankton recorders (CPRs) towed along repeated transect lines between New York and Boston and between Boston and Halifa.
Phytoplankton samples were collected by continuous plankton recorders (CPRs) towed along repeated transect lines between New York and Boston and between Boston and Halifa.
Samples were periodically cross-checked between analysts for consistency.
Specimens are preserved in formalin.
