MarineGEO Temperature Logger Protocol

Leah Harper, Tennenbaum Marine Observatories Network & MarineGEO
The "MarineGEO Temperature Logger Protocol" collects deployment and retrieval metadata for EnvLogger temperature loggers deployed at MarineGEO sampling locations.

MarineGEO Sampling Event & Environmental Monitoring Protocol

Leah Harper, MarineGEO & Tennenbaum Marine Observatories Network
The "MarineGEO Sampling Event & Environmental Monitoring Protocol" collects critical sampling event metadata and environmental data to support MarineGEO surveys used to investigate "Habitats and foundation species" and "Community organization and interactions".
Use this protocol to collect appropriate metadata for each sampling locality at least once per field season. The protocol collects qualitative and quantitative site characteristics such as coordinates, depth, salinity, and dissolved oxygen.
