Distribution of Pink Salmon in the North Pacific Ocean

Data format: SDE Feature Class

File or table name: SOS.DBO.pink_sea

Coordinate system: Mercator

Theme keywords: Ocean Distribution, Pink Salmon

Abstract: This dataset contains information for Pink Salmon Ocean Distribution summarized by 2 X 5 degree statistical areas for the North Pacific. These areas were grouped by presence to create seemless areas of Pink Salmon presence or absence.

FGDC and NBII Metadata:

Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.
