Abstract
This dataset includes ichthyoplankton density and plankton displacement volume data collected using MOCNESS plankton nets (1x2m, equipped with 10 nets of 333um mesh widths) during three NSF RAPID Plankton cruises. RAPID Plankton Cruise 1 took place on R/V Point Sur, cruise number PS1813, from October 28-November 3, 2017. RAPID Plankton Cruise 2 took place on R/V Pelican, cruise number PE18-18, from January 6- 12, 2018. RAPID Plankton Cruise 3 took place on R/V Pelican, cruise number PE18-21, from March 19- 23, 2018. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'.
