Hare, Jonathan A.

The cruise period was 9 – 13 June 2008. The NOAA fisheries research vessel HENRY B. BIGELOW sampled at a total of 44 stations. All of these were located in the Southern New England (SNE) area (Figure 1). Due to a change in the vessel schedule reducing the number of available days to 5, the primary objective of this cruise was changed from the traditional assessment of biological and physical properties of the northeast continental shelf ecosystem to an evaluation and comparison of data obtained from bongo nets versus that obtained by a video plankton recorder.
