Description:
Biological Data: Mnemiopsis Leidyi biomass and abundance Sampling method: Hensen net : vertical haulst, with mouth opening 0.70 m, mesh size 300um. Hauls from 0-100 offshore stations, and from 0-depth 2 m above the bottom inshore (<200 m). Hauling speed: 1.5m/s. Samples were sorted out and freshly enumerated and weighed onboard with hand-balance. Sampling volume was estimated by multiplying the mouth area with the wire length. Data provider: Dr. Erhan Mutlu. Quality control: Dr. Erhan Mutlu. Principal investigators: Ferit Bingel, Ulrich Niermann, Erhan Mutlu.
Parameters list: Gelatinous plankton, Zooplankton, Density, Salinity, Temperature, ITS-90
