BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Summary
Insert a short description of the background for the method/protocol (e.g. why and for which purpose do you perform sequencing).
Please provide a brief summary of your method including, as appropriate, a brief description of what techniques your best practice is about, which ocean environments or regions it targets, the primary sensors covered, what type of data/measurements/observing platform it covers, limits to its applicability.
Method description and rationale
Insert a short description of the functioning principal of the methodology used in the protocol (i.e. how does the method work?). Please note that this is different from the step-by-step description of the protocol procedure.
Insert a short statement explaining why the specific methodology used in the protocol has been selected (e.g. it is highly reproducible, highly accurate, procedures are easy to execute etc….).
Spatial coverage and environment(s) of relevance
If applicable, please specify the region where the protocol is applied. For regional term guidance see here. If applicable, please indicate here the environment(s) of relevance for the protocol, e.g. Abyssal plain. Select from the ENVO terminology.
PERSONNEL REQUIRED
Insert the number of technicians, data managers, and scientists required for the good execution of the procedure
Safety
Identify hazards associated with the procedure and specify protective equipment and safety training required to safely execute the procedure
Training requirements
Specify technical training required for the good execution of the procedure.
Time needed to execute the procedure
Specify how much time is necessary to execute the procedure.
EQUIPMENT
EQUIPMENT
| DESCRIPTION e.g. filter | PRODUCT NAME AND MODEL Provide the official name of the product | MANUFACTURER Provide the name of the manufacturer of the product. | QUANTITY Provide quantities necessary for one application of the standard operating procedure (e.g. number of filters). | REMARK For example, some of the consumable may need to be sterilized, some commercial solution may need to be diluted or shielded from light during the operating procedure. | |
