Metadata: Irish Sea Annual Egg Production Method (AEPM) Plankton Survey - 2000
Abstract:
Between August 6th and September 6th 2000 a series of ichthyoplankton surveys were carried out in the Irish Sea by the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Northern Ireland and the Department of the Marine to improve stock assessment by the egg production method. Target species were cod (Gadus morhua) and plaice (Pleuronectes platessa). The data described here consists of the numbers of fish eggs and larvae and zooplankton, along with associated positional and ancillary data and volumes filtered.

Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science, Lowestoft Laboratory (CEFAS)

| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Irish Sea Annual Egg Production Method (AEPM) Plankton Survey - 2000 |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | CEFAS00936a98-1ca4-48f4-8eca-b5ca7703a5c9 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEFAS2641 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2000-01-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2000-12-31 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 1000 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | urn:ogc:def:uom:EPSG::9001 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Sampling on Cirolana/Corystes used 76cm un-encased body, 40 cm diameter nosecone, 270 um mesh main net, Guildline CTD and CEFAS logging software, auxillary un-encased PUP sampler, 5cm diameter opening nosecone, 80 um mesh net, Valeport flowmeters with CEFAS continuous logging. *Cirolana cruises 5 and 6 as recorded in the dataset, are numbered as cruise 3 in the cruise report for this survey period* Sampling on Lough Foyle used 76cm un-encased body, 40cm diameter nosecone, 270 um mesh main net, auxillary un-encased PUP sampler, 5cm diameter opening nosecone, 80 um mesh net, SeaBird CTD and Pro-net logging software, Valeport flowmeters with Pronet continuous logging. No cruise reports are available for the Lough Foyle surveys. Sampling on Celtic Voyager used 76cm un-encased body, 40cm diameter nosecone, 270 um mesh main net, auxilliary PUP net carried?, SeaBird CTD and Pro-net logging software, Valeport flowmeters with Pronet continuous logging. No cruise reports are available. Analysis at CEFAS involved separating eggs and larvae from samples. All eggs identified and measured. Eggs in size range 1.25-1.75 mm without oil globules were coded as COD (this was later changed to ZZY). These eggs were staged and measured. Where >100 eggs were found, sub-sampling undertaken. Eggs which were unmeasured were apportioned across the size distn of measured eggs. Other ZZY eggs were sub-sampled if necessary, counted and measured but not staged. Only a few PUP samples analysed to date. Involved analysis of at least 100 organisms if total species < 10 and at least 200 organisms if more species present. |
