Long-term observations on the Bering Sea shelf: biophysical mooring data from mooring site 5
This project is a continuation of a long-term partnership between National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and North Pacific Research Board (NPRB). Moorings have been maintained on the southeastern Bering Sea shelf at four sites: M2 (56.9 N, 164.1 W) since 1995, M4 (57.9 N, 168.9 W) si...

This project is a continuation of a long-term partnership between National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and North Pacific Research Board (NPRB). Moorings have been maintained on the southeastern Bering Sea shelf at four sites: M2 (56.9 N, 164.1 W) since 1995, M4 (57.9 N, 168.9 W) since 1996, M5 (59.9 N, 171.7 W) and M8 (62.2 N 174.7 W) since 2004.
