      <abstract>Process Study CTD temperature and salinity surveys were
      conducted in discrete/different hydrographic regimes on Georges Bank to
      better understand environmental impacts on zooplankton behavior and
      distribution. These CTD Process Study cruises cover the period 1992-95,
      1997 and 1999 for the time periods reported below. Ship/Cruise/Dates:
