Data from 1965 to 1975 documents the vertical distribution of ichthyoplankton and other zooplankton collected by NOAA ships DOLPHIN and DELAWARE II in the Middle Atlantic Bight. The dataset, processed by the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) to its F124 standard format, was gathered for the Bureau of Land Management. It supports studies of marine population abundance, distribution, and ecosystem productivity.
Data reporting follows the NODC F124 format, which has specific rules for reporting life history stages (e.g., separate records for adults and juveniles if life history codes are used).
