Sediment Dwelling Benthos as Indicator Species for Pollution Monitoring of Mamala Bay, Oahu, Hawaii, 1993-1994 (NCEI Accession 9900121)
A multifaceted study of the sediment dwelling benthos was conducted in Mamala Bay to identify suitable species as indicators of sewage enrichment. There are five components to this study - 1) reproduction and life histories of potential indicator species, 2) seasonal abundance of each indicator species near the outfall and at the control site (Diamond Head) at 70m depth, 3) abundance and species richness of indicators and associated benthos at 6 sites and the control at 40m depth, 4) sediment grain size analyses at each site to characterize the infaunal habitat, 5) CHN and Nitrogen analyses from the study area to elucidate the role of sewage in the organic content of the sediments. Each component is presented as a separate section as methods and analyses differ for each. This same format is used for the appendices.

Supplemental Information | Note: Metadata for this accession were extracted from a legacy database maintained by the U.S. National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC). The design of the database did not exactly reflect the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Principal Investigator (PI) and organization contact information accurately represents all available information from the legacy database at the time that this description was created. However, proper attribution of a PI to a specific institution or the role (submitting or collecting) taken by an institution may not be correct due to inexact mapping between fields in the legacy database and the CSDGM. Due to this uncertainty, the contact information was initially recorded in the Supplemental Information element of the CSDGM description. To develop more accurate metadata, NCEI reviews metadata for all accessions on an ongoing basis. Points of contact for this data set include: Contact info: Agency: UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII PI: Bailey-Brock, Julie Address: address: 2525 CORREA ROAD, HIG331 city: HONOLULU state: HI postal: 96822 country: UNITED STATES In this accession, NCEI has archived multiple versions of these data. The latest (and best) version of these data has the largest version number. |
