Abstract:

This dataset of 6999 records, tabulated from raw data, represents abundances of copepods collected from Fletcher's Ice Island (T-3) in the Canadian Basin of the Arctic Ocean during January 1970 to April 1972 and at AIDJEX from June to September 1975. In 1970-1972 samples were taken, using a 2m-square closing net with a 223-um mesh aperture (sampling 10m increments) and for 1975, a 1-m diameter conical, non closing net with a 73-um mesh. This dataset is a subsection of zooplankton sampled at T-3 from March 1966 through May 1974 and at AIDJEX from June through September 1975.This data were collected as part of a PhD. Dissertation Phytoplankton Primary Production below Arctic Ocean Pack Ice: An Ecosystem Analysis by Clarence Greer Pautzke. Other disciplines examined within this thesis are: surface observations, chlorophyll a, seawater analysis and primary production. Data from this larger study can be found in; Scott, D.A. and T. Saunders English “Zooplankton other than Copepoda collected from Fletcher’s Ice Island (T-3) in the Canadian Basin of the Arctic Ocean” University of Washington Technical report No 241 and Scott, D.A. and T. Saunders English “Copepoda collected from Fletcher's Ice Island (T-3) in the Canadian Basin of the Arctic Ocean”, University of Washington Technical Report No. 240. These data are also served by ArcOD. Dates may not be continuous as all of the samples may not have been analyzed or the data may not have been recovered.

Purpose:

The objectives of this portion of the study were to evaluate the abundance and species distribution of copepods from the Arctic Ocean 1970-1972 and 1975.

Methodology_Type: Field and lab

Methodology_Description:

Samples were taken with vertical net hauls. In 1970 to 1973 a 2-m square closing net with 223 um mesh was used to sample either 10m increments from 300 to 10m, or a 90m water column from 100 to 10m. In 1975, a 1m diameter, conical, non-closing net with 73um mesh was used for overlapping tows from depths of 50, 75, 100 and 150m to the surface. Samples were preserved immediately in 4% formalin solution buffered with sodium borate and sodium acetate. Species taken from 100 to 10m were counted in one sample per month for June to September 1970-1973. Calanus hyperboreus, Calanus glacialis, Euchaeta glacialis, Microcalanus pygmaeus, and Oithona similis were identified to copepodite stages and adults. Stage I copepodites of C. hyperboreus and C. glacialis were distinguished by metasome length, the former being longer than 0.8mm. Metridia longa was identified to only stage III in 1975 and to stage I in 1970 to 1973. Oncaea borealis juveniles were not identified to copepodite stage; all juveniles were combined and may include individuals of O. notopus. Copepod nauplii were counted, but not identified to species. Copepods longer than 1.5mm were counted in entire samples. Smaller copepods were subsampled (usually and aliquot portion of 1/64, 1/128, or 1/256). Filtration efficiency of the nets was assumed to be 100%
