Summary

Abstract

Table contains count and individual length information for 'Other Invertebrates' (non-penaeid shrimp, crabs, etc.). 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 specimen(s) unable to measure. If invert taxon was subsampled, code '-999' in measurement column represents remaining number of specimens above subsample size that were not measured. Empty length column indicates parameter was not measured.

It was created by export of a sql server database

Description

Table contains count, measurement, and weight information, if available, for penaeid shrimp only. If count = 0, a code of -999 in measurement column indicates nothing to measure or weigh for given record or sample. If count =1, a code of -999 in measurement column indicates damaged specimens that could not be measured for given taxon. An empty column indicates parameter was not measured.
