The table below lists the contents of an eastern Bering Sea
groundfish food habits database donated to us by Japanese scientists
who collected these data on Japanese research vessels from 1979 to
1985. The data are stored in tables similar to our main database but
are maintained separately. The numbers of analyzed stomachs in the
Japanese data set are presented by year and species
