Data Attribute / Type Description
Sample #
NUMBER
Unique identifier for the sample.
Date collected
DATE
The date on which physical data and/or biological sample was collected.
Sampling time
DATE
Time of sampling given as military time. Units for values are Hour:Minute.
Time of low tide
DATE
The most recent low tide closest to the time of the sampling given as military time. Units for values are Hour:Minute.
Julian day
NUMBER
The day number for a year. January 1 is Julian day 1 while February 1 is Julian day 32, etc.
Site code
VARCHAR2
A code assigned to the the sampling site by the Washington State Department of Health.
Site name
VARCHAR2
The name of the sampling site.
Site latitude
NUMBER
The site latitude, which along with the site longitude unambiguously specifies the site location.
Site longitude
NUMBER
The site longitude,which along with the site latitude unambiguously specifies the site location.
Air temperature
NUMBER
Air temperature at the sampling site. Units for values are Degrees Centigrade (C).
Surface water temperature
NUMBER
The temperature of the surface water at the sampling site. Units for values are Degrees Centigrade (C).
Water temperature at -3 feet
NUMBER
The temperature of water 3 feet below the surface at the sampling site. Units for values are Degrees Centigrade (C).
Salinity
NUMBER
Salinity of the water at the sampling site. Units for values are Parts per thousand (ppt).
Chlorophyll
NUMBER
The chlorophyll content of the water at the sampling site. Units for values are Micrograms per liter of water.
Oyster tissue temperature
NUMBER
The temperature of oyster tissue collected at the sampling site. Units for values are Degrees Centigrade (C).
Total Vibrio parahaemolyticus, water
NUMBER
Each cell of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) contains one copy of a gene called tl. Each water sample was analyzed for the number of copies of tl giving a direct measure of the density of Vp in the water column. Not all Vp are virulent. Units for values are Number of cells of Vp per 100 grams of water.
tdh+ Vibrio parahaemolyticus, water
NUMBER
The tdh gene is associated with virulence. Each cell of Vp can contain more than one copy of tdh. Therefore, the number of copies of tdh can exceed the number of copies of tl in some samples. Units for values are Number of cells of potentially pathogenic Vp per 100 grams of water.
Total Vibrio parahaemolyticus, net tow
NUMBER
At most sites, a large volume of water was filtered through a plankton net with a mesh size of 200 micron. This concentrates particate matter such as plankton to which Vp bacteria can attach. As before, the number of copeis of the tl gene serves to give a direct measure of the density of Vp associated with particles in the water column. Units for values are Number of cells of Vp per 100 grams of water retained in the net tow.
tdh+ Vibrio parahaemolyticus, net tow
NUMBER
The number of copies of the virulence-assciated tdh gene detected in net tow samples. Units for values are Number of copies of tdh present per 100 grams of water retained in the net tow.
Total Vibrio parahemolyticus, oyster
NUMBER
Oyster tissue is homogenized and analyzed for total V. parahaemolyticus by detection of the the tl gene by the "Most Probable Number (MPN)" method. Units for values are The MPN of Vp per gram of oyster tissue.
tdh+ Vibrio parahaemolyticus, oyster
NUMBER
The most probable number of copies of the virulence-associated tdh gene detected in oyster tissue. Units for values are The MPN of copies of tdh per gram of oyster tissue.
