North Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) were caught by deploying trawl nets in March (2 -20) 2022 during the winter expeditions of the International Year of the Salmon to the North Pacific high seas onboard R/V TINRO. Trawl nets were deployed at each station in the top 50 meters of the water column and towed for 60 minutes (night) or 90 minutes (day) at 4 to 5 knots. A 2x2 cm sample of salmon muscle tissue was collected from above the lateral line and in front of the dorsal fin and stored at -80°C. Muscle samples were then processed in the laboratory at the University of British Columbia. Tissue was lyophilized in freeze drier for 48 hours, homogenized using mortar and pestle, encapsulated in tin (Sn) capsules, and sent for measurements of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios and elemental contents at an external lab. Samples were analysed on an Elemental Analyser coupled to an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer. Details on analytical procedure are provided in the supplementary materials 1 and 2.

Macrocystis kelp canopy productivity data from BC Central Coast, v1.3.0

The macrocystis canopy productivity dataset is a component of the Hakai Institute Nearshore research and monitoring program. This dataset documents seasonal and annual changes in Macrocystis pyrifera biomass, density, productivity and reproduction on the Central Coast of British Columbia during the primary growing season (April to October). Density and morphometric measurements of kelps in situ were quantified within three to five permanent monitoring sites to determine kelp size structure, growth rates and loss rates throughout the growing season (2014-2018). Additional sites are visited annually (ongoing since 2014) to estimate annual change in biomass at these locations. Outcomes of this research show that biomass and productivity of M. pyrifera varies spatially and temporally. Based on these data we can determine which field parameters best correlate with overall M. pyrifera productivity and biomass, and ultimately, refine metrics for long-term assessments of this canopy kelp status on BC’s coast and find what environment drivers are most important to its density, spread and health. 
This data package is freely available to everyone, following the principles of equitable access and benefit sharing. However, we expect all data users to give attribution to the data providers (read our data license) and the use of these data should happen in the light of fair use, i.e.: 1) respect the data providers, and provide helpful feedback on data quality, and 2) communicate and/or collaborate with the providers if you are considering using this dataset for manuscripts or other forms of reporting.
