Abstract:

This dataset includes 71 images of multicores collected during R/V Weatherbird II cruise 1405 from September 23rd to October 3rd, 2013. This cruise occupied the Deep-C benthic array with the addition of two new sites located to the east-north-east of DeSoto Canyon. The cruise report is provided as supporting information.

Purpose:

To evaluate the biological diversity and trophic interactions among organisms ranging from primary producers to apex predators and from the deep-sea benthos to the coast. These data contribute to a food web model used to determine risks to ecosystem structure and function and regional economies following from extreme anthropogenic events (e.g., discharged and background hydrocarbon) and adaptive management strategies.

Data Parameters and Units:

Multicore images (jpeg) - images are arranged in folders by event and folders are named using event ID codes. Event ID codes and latitude and longitudes are: MC7 : 28.2528 -86.4216 MC15 : 28.2528 -86.4216 MC17 28.6365 -87.8685 MC19 28.6365 -87.8685 MC20 28.6365 -87.8685 MC24 29.9164 -87.6691 MC25 28.9164 -87.6691 MC27 28.9164 -87.6691 MC44 28.056 -85.9335 MC45 28.056 -85.9335 MC50 28.9945 -87.4574 MC52 28.9945 -87.4574 MC53 28.9945 -87.4574
