Summary

Abstract

Dataset containing the sample number, prey taxon (code), frequency of occurrence for otoliths/beaks and other prey hard parts, and the minimum number of individuals for otoliths/beak and other prey hard parts. Frequency of occurrence is the presence (1) or absence (0) of a particular prey taxon in the sample. Minimum number of individuals is the maximum number of prey hard parts (otoliths/beaks or other) counted for a particular prey taxon found in the sample. It can be used to estimate abundance.

Data Attribute / Type Description
SCATNUM
Unknown 		Sample number assigned at the time of screening.
Prey Taxon Code
Unknown 		Prey species denoted by 6-letter code.
Frequency of Occurrence for Otolith/Beak
Unknown 		Occurrence (presence) of individual based upon otoliths or beaks.
Frequency of Occurrence for Other Structures
Unknown 		Occurrence (presence) of individual based from other parts (e.g. bones, cartilage, statoliths, etc) (i.e. not otoliths or beaks).
Minimum Number of Individuals - Otoliths/Beaks
Unknown 		Minimum number of individuals (MNI) per sample from otoliths or beaks. Number derived from counting the maximum number of otoliths/beaks of a particular prey taxon found in sample. A zero (0) may indicate that MNI was not determined.
Minimum Number of Individuals - Other Structures
Unknown 		Minimum number of individuals per sample from other parts (e.g. bones, cartilage, statoliths, etc.) (i.e. not otoliths/beaks). Number derived from counting the maximum number of hard parts (not otoliths/beaks) of a particular prey taxon found in sample. A zero (0) may indicate that MNI was not determined.
