Time Series and sampled Variables

Map of WGZE-associated time series
Click on the map above to view a table of WGZE/WGPME
time series and their sampled variable categories.

The link above will take you to a page that summarizes the variable types sampled by the ~150 time series stations associated with WGZE and WGPME members and associates.  A "variables-sampled table" similar to below is provided for each entry.  A legend describing each variable code (e.g. hdoxy = disssolved oxygen, ztotc = total copepods) is provide farther below.  Colored-in table cells indicate that that variable is regularly sampled by that time series.  Gray/uncolored background indicate that that variable was not sampled (or that data from that variable were not available to WGZE).

example of a time series variables sampled summary chart

Hydrographic Variables (black cell coloration):

- htemp = tempeerature

- hpsal = salinity

- hdoxy = dissolved oxygen

Nutrient Variables (orange cell coloration):

-hnno3 = nitrate

-hnp04 = phosphate

-hnsi4 = silicate

Phytoplankton Variables (dark green cell coloration):

- hchla = chlorophyll-a

- hchlo = fluorometric or other chlorophyll type

- hchlz = CPR "Phytoplankton Colour Index (PCI)"

- pbact = Total Bacteria abundance

-psyne = Total Synechococcus abundance

- pdiat = Total Diatom abundance

- pdino = Total Dinoflagellate abundance

- pcoco = Total Coccolithophore abundance

- pcili = Total Ciliate abundance

Zooplankton Variables (dark red coloration):

- zmbio = Total "Biomass" measurements (e.g., total sample wet mass, dry mass, or displacement volume)

- ztotc = Total Copepod abundance

-ztotz = Total Zooplanton abundance
