- Description
- The contractor shall furnish all materials, labor, & equipment needed to identify contents of seabird prey regurgitations. Samples will be zooplankton from auklet prey regurgitations from the Pribilof and Aleutian Islands, Alaska. Identification will require a reference collection of local species as prey items will often be partially digested. Samples should be retained until the data are approved. Identification of zooplankton must be made to the minimum taxonomic level possible based on the condition of the sample; usually we expect this identification to be to the species or genus level (and stage for copepods), although we recognize some taxa are difficult beyond the family level especially when decomposed. A record for each zooplankton sample will contain the following: number of individuals of each prey type and average mass of an individual. Data should be provided in an Access database which we will provide. The samples will be provided to the contractor by 30 June 2013 and the summary of the results should be provided to the USFWS within 3 months. Bid should be the price for analysis of each sample; there will be up to 200 samples depending on price. Deliverables: An access database record containing the number of individuals of each prey type and average mass of an individual for each zooplankton sample, up to 200 samples. Period of Performance: June 30, 2013 September 30, 2013
