Lineage

Compiled from UK and Norway research surveys between 1930 and 2018. Full description of surveys in the paper submitted along with this dataset: Townhill, B.L., Holt, R.E., Bogstad, B., Durant, J.M., Pinnegar, J.K., Dolgov, A.V., Yaragina, N.A., Johannesen, E., Ottersen, G. Barents Sea cod diet data from the 1930s to the present day. Earth System Science Data. In Review. The data is from joint collaborative surveys between Norway and Russia, and from UK research surveys in the Barents Sea from 1930s to 1940s. The sampling was done throughout each year allowing for seasonal, annual and decadal comparisons to be made. Russian data cannot be released with this dataset for legal reasons but is available through joint projects with the Polar branch of VNIRO.
