Dataset of zooplankton from the Central Arctic Basin. 9,139 occurrences

This datasets has 10688 records representing 83 terminal taxa collected from the Kara Sea between 1997 and 2001. In the zooplankton, for which most data were available, four regional aggregations were separated: (1) the rivers and estuaries of the Southern Kara Sea, (2) the south-western and (3) the central Kara Sea, and (4) the northern troughs and slope. 10,687 occurrences

Data of zooplankton collected in the Chukchi Sea, summers 1953-1954. 1,910 occurrences

To assess species composition, abundance, distribution and biomass of zooplankton across locations of the Canadian Beaufort Sea Shelf. 8,058 occurrences

Dataset comprising 1681 observations of Microbenthic algae species located near Point Barrow Alaska. Presence or absence of these species are noted. 1,680 occurrences

Macrobenthos in the southeastern Chukchi Sea collected in 1985 - 1987. 2,451 occurrences

This dataset contains point distribution occurrences for fish species found in marine waters of Arctic Canada. It was used to create the distribution maps in the book Marine Fishes of Arctic Canada, edited by B.W. Coad and J.D. Reist (2018) and the DFO Data Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Distributional Records for Marine Fishes of Arctic Canada (Alfonso et al. 2018). The database includes literature (Coad and Reist 2016) and museum records, anecdotal reports, personal communications and data from fisheries surveys and exploratory cruises. Development of the database began in 1998 and data entry ceased in 2016, although the database will be updated periodically. Consult the book (Coad and Reist 2018) and the Data Report (Alfonso et al. 2018) for further details in regards to the specific sources for each data point by species especially those from sources other than published literature.
