Description
Summary:This metadata record documents the Species Size Survey data for the Multi-Agency Rocky Intertidal Network (MARINe) Core surveys. Total counts for species counted during these surveys are available in a separate Species Count dataset. Please note that counts for species measured in the Species Size dataset are already included in the Species Count dataset, and should not be added to those totals. Species Size surveys are conducted throughout the year at sites ranging from Northern Oregon to Southern California.
