| Description: |
Georges Bank Fish larvae collected in MOCNESS tows, 1995-1999. Standard Haul Factor: numerical factor (multiplier) used to standardize catches to be expressed as number caught per 10m^2 of sea surface area. Most haul factors range from 1 to 10. The Standard Haul Factor has not been applied to the data reported here. |
