Entity_Type_Label: DietMass
Entity_Type_Definition:
Diet data for individual chum salmon stomach reported as proportions by mass. Mass proportions were calculated by multipling the count of each prey type by the average weight of each prey type and subsequently dividing by the total calculated prey mass across the four prey categories. Only nearly whole diet items are counted to avoid redundancy and provide enough of the animal for indentification. Proportions of harpacticoids, insects, calanoids, and other sum to 1.0 on each row.
