3MF03 SeaCAT Data

FOCI's goal is to understand the effects of abiotic and biotic variability on ecosystems of the North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea in order to discern the physical and biological processes that determine recruitment variability of commercially valuable finfish and shellfish stocks in Alaskan waters. The objectives of 3MFO3 included the recovery and deployment of moorings at the FOCI study areas Site 2 and Site 4 andn recovering and deploying moorings for the Steller Seal Lion (SSL) project in the Aleutian Islands study areas. Lastly, to conduct Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth (CTD) profile casts at all mooring sites, and possibly other stations.
