Summary

Abstract:
The Ocean Data Evaluation System (ODES) is used for storing and analyzing water quality and biological data from marine, estuarine, and freshwater environments. The system supports Federal, State, and local decision makers associated with marine monitoring programs, and managers and analysts who must meet regulatory objectives through the evaluation of marine monitoring information. ODES contains data from the National Estuary Program, the Great Lakes National Program Office, the Ocean Disposal Program, 301(h) Sewage Discharge Program, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Program, and the 403(c) Program. Records pertain to water quality, fish abundance, bioaccumulation, benthic infauna, fish histopathology, bioassay, and sediment physical/chemical characteristics. Users can examine both spatial and temporal relationships among variables. A quality assurance report describing analytical methods and procedures for each data set is stored with each data set. |
