Description:The data in this report were collected as part of the NOAA program Fisheries-Oceanography Coordinated Investigations (FOCI). These data were obtained as part of an ongoing effort to describe the environment of the Shelikof Strait region of Alaska and understand how it relates to the recruitment of walleye pollock, Theragra chalcogramma. Background studies emphasizing areal distribution and seasonal development of zooplankton communities were conducted in 1985 (March to October) and 1986 (April to August); these data are reported in Siefert et al. (1988a) and Siefert and Incze (1989a), respectively. Zooplankton vertical distributions in areas of concentrated pollock larvae were studied in 1986 and in 1987; these data are reported in Siefert et al. (1988b) and Siefert et al. (1990), respectively.
The data reported here are abundance and composition data collected from April 4-28, 1988 for seasonal and interannual comparisons of the Shelikof zooplankton community. These data augment similar data collected in 1987 (Siefert and Incze 1989b) and the data collected in 1985 and 1986. Proctor (1989) provides the details of the research cruises conducted in 1988. Data summarized in these various reports are undergoing analysis and will be the subjects of more detailed manuscripts, some currently in preparation.
