This dataset includes the taxonomic hierarchy for epibenthic community organisms collected in Aleutian Island kelp forests, based on biomass data. It also lists the method used to sample, either by a scrape collection or by a visual count along a swath.
For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The most current version of this dataset is available at: https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/728110
