Entity Information

Data Attribute / Type Description
NST_SITE
Unknown
NSandT Site Code: A 4-character acronym, which defines the name of a NSandT sampling site. The characters are generally chosen from the site's general and specific location. | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project
YEAR
Unknown
Project year. Samples collected during the fiscal year (1OCT2000 and 30SEP2001) are reported as project year 2001. Analytical results reported in calendar year 2001 for samples collected on 1OCT1999 should be reported as project year of 2000 (i.e. fiscal year 2000). | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project

SPEC_CD1
Unknown
Species abbreviation. Usually a 2 or 3 letter code which identifies the common species name. For example AF is used to define Artic Flounder. | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project
ANALYTE
Unknown
Analyte abbreviation. Abbreviation for the target compound or surrogate standard. | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project

Unknown
Result concentration. A numerical value for the measured parameter. | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project
UNITS
Unknown
The units associated with the measured parameter: (ng/dry g) for organic chemicals; (ug/dry g) for inorganic chemicals; percent (%) for surrogate standards; percent (dry wt.) TC, TIC, TOC. | Description Source: National Status and Trends, Benthic Surveillance Project
