Chlorophyll-a Data from the CCGS Sir John Franklin during the 2022 International Year of the Salmon Pan-Pacific Winter High Seas Expedition

Chlorophyll samples on board the CCGS Sir John Franklin were collected in square, calibrated, ~330 ml HDPE bottles at several depths in the euphotic zone. Duplicates for all samples were taken when possible as variability between filters can be quite high. Each sample bottle was rinsed thoroughly three times (including the cap) before filling. After 3 rinses, bottles were filled, leaving as little room for air as possible. A filtration manifold system containing 6 filtration towers, the manifold, and a filtrate flask was set up in as dark an environment as possible. Before beginning filtration, each tower was loaded with a 25 mm GF/F filter. The volume filtered is recorded on the sample label and the label was transfered from sample bottle to scintillation vial. Filter was removed after filtration (using forceps) and gently placed in scintillation vial sample side up.

Mapping Canopy-Forming Kelps in the Northeast Pacific: A Guidebook for Decision-Makers and Practitioners

This guidebook provides an overview of optical remote sensing as it relates to mapping giant kelp and bull kelp. We describe optical remote sensing platforms and sensors pertinent to mapping and monitoring attributes of bull kelp and giant kelp beds - kelp presence/absence, density, species, and health. Recommendations found in this guidebook can also reasonably be applied to other floating, emergent canopy-forming kelp species (i.e. other kelp that float at the ocean’s surface). This guidebook provides monitoring guidance via infographics developed by an international community of kelp remote sensing experts. We illustrate a user-friendly framework based on the latest remote sensing science for matching a kelp monitoring objective(s) to the desired spatial scale and environmental setting. The goal of this guidebook is to help you, our reader, select the best remote sensing tools and data for your science and/or management directives related to kelp mapping. The guidebook is available in both English and Spanish.

Flow Cytometry data from the R/V TINRO, NOAA Bell M. Shimada and CCGS Sir John Franklin during the 2022 International Year of the Salmon Pan-Pacific Winter High Seas Expedition

Phytoplankton community composition and size structure vary considerably between oligotrophic and eutrophic regions (areas of low or high macro and micronutrients (e.g., iron)) (Hill et al., 2005; Martin et al., 1989; Strom et al., 2006; 2016), between surface and subsurface depths (Hill et al., 2005), and with season (Moran et al., 2012) and climatic conditions (Batten et al., 2021). Phytoplankton represent the base of the food web providing energy for zooplankton, which in turn support the growth of juvenile and adult salmon populations. Certain phytoplankton, like many diatom species, are particularly important food items in the GOA (Odate, 1996, Strom et al., 2007). We aim to broaden understanding of phytoplankton dynamics in the GOA/NPO by investigating spatial and temporal patterns in community structure and biomass and exploring environmental (physics and nutrients) drivers of taxonomic variability that may lead to variation in the quality of phytoplankton biomass available to primary consumers during winter. The spatial variations in phytoplankton biomass, and taxa and community size structure were characterized through measurements of total chla, flow cytometry, and HPLC (analyzed by Canadian PIs Konik, Costa) collected at all IYS stations. In zone 4 (US Ship Shimada) flow cytometry samples were collected from 5, 25, and 50 m for assessment of microbial community cell sizes (Moran et al. 2012), and HPLC samples from 5 m for assessment of phytoplankton functional groups; both data sets will be used to help ground-truth the information obtained from the satellite ocean color measurements. Flow cytometry and HPLC samples were also collected at 5 m depths in zone 5 (on Canadian ship Franklin) and in zones 2-3 (on Russian ship TINRO), so we have samples over the entire area surveyed. The flow cytometry analysis deliverables include tabulated counts (cells/ml) and estimated carbon content (C/cell and C/population) for the following 4 phytoplankton pico- and nanoplankton: Synechococcus, Cryptophytes, picoeukaryotes, nanoeukaryotes (excluding Cryptophytes). Water samples for total chlorophyll a (Chla), were collected from Niskin bottles at six depths (5, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150 m) at all stations surveyed.
