Project aboard

We plan to conduct depth-discrete midwater trawls using a 10m2-MOCNESS to collect a diversity of micronekton animals from across epipelagic, mesopelagic, and upper bathypelagic depths spanning the continental shelf into offshore waters within the southern California Current Ecosystem. CTD casts will also be conducted at each of the stations.
