Quality

ATTRIBUTE ACCURACY REPORT: The upper 6 cm were sampled. The 0-1 mm layer was washed over 300 um mesh, toe 1-6 cm layer was washed over 500 um mesh. The catchability of the was not quantified. The total catch of the upper 6 cm was processed LOGICAL CONSISTENCY REPORT: The same procedures were used at all sites; findings should be consistent. COMPLETENESS REPORT: The total catch including all taxa was processed, but only polychaetes are part of this data set. HORIZONTAL POSITIONAL ACCURACY REPORT: Sites were identified using GPS PROCESS DESCRIPTION: 1. Change title from "Macrofaunal community patterns at the continental margin off East Greenland " 2. Update v1 to v2 3. Add AOOS Data Management keywords PROCESS DATE: 20090423 When not provided by authors, taxonomic information was completed using ITIS and is based on quantitative sampling using a box core. It may not represent a complete list of taxa occurring in the region.
