Beach Emergence Data - Capelin

Beach emergence data samples consist of capelin larvae only. These samples are extracted from various beach sites at high tidal conditions, using a modified beach seine with a plankton net fitting that was towed for 40 m along the beach edge. Data series is from 1990-2012. See Nakashima and Mowbray (2014) DFO Can Sci Advis Sec Res Doc 2013/091 v+27 p. for details.
