Summary

Abstract

Table contains fish count and length information. If count = 0, a code of '-999' in measurement column indicates nothing to measure for given record or sample. If count ≥1, a code of '-999' in measurement column indicates damaged specimens unable to measure. If fish taxon was subsampled, code '-999' in measurement column refers to number of specimens above subsample size that were not measured. Empty length column indicates parameter was not measured.

This was created by export of a sql server database

Description

Table contains total count, size range, and weight by taxon and sample. If count = 0, a code of '-999' indicates nothing to measure or weigh for given record or sample. If count = 1 or ≥2 and measurement column has '-999' code, maximum and minimum length information may be available in Fish Length Table, but was not transferred to Fish Mass Table; or, may represent damaged specimens not measured for given taxon.

Data Attribute / Type Description
Record_ID_Number
Numeric 		System generated record number assigned to each data stream.
PROJECTNAME
VARCHAR2 		Combination of assigned project name and year(s) study was conducted
SAMPLENUMBER
VARCHAR2 		Project acronym-year-sample number combination used to identify each data record

Title: HCS_1995_1996tblfishlength.csv
Short Name: Fishlength
Status: Completed
Abstract:

Table contains fish count and length information. If count = 0, a code of '-999' in measurement column indicates nothing to measure for given record or sample. If count ≥1, a code of '-999' in measurement column indicates damaged specimens unable to measure. If fish taxon was subsampled, code '-999' in measurement column refers to number of specimens above subsample size that were not measured. Empty length column indicates parameter was not measured.

This was created by export of a sql server database
Supplemental Information:

Up to 25 specimens of each taxon were measured per sample. The remainder were coded as '-999'. No biomass/weight data for any nekton.
