    • CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam Small Boat Fishery Trip Expenditure (2009 to present)

    Metadata Updated: March 16, 2024

    This is a time-series dataset of trip expenditure data including actual fishing trip expenses, input usage, and input prices, for boat-based reef fish, bottomfish, and pelagic fisheries in CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam. Specifically, the surveys intend to collect information on: gallons of fuel used for the fishing trip, price per gallon of fuel, cost of ice used, cost of bait & chum used, cost of fishing gear lost, and the engine type of the boat. These economic data are collected through an add-on to boat-based creel surveys initiated by local fisheries agencies in CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam to collect fisheries dependent data. The data collection program was implemented in April 2009 in CNMI, August 2009 in American Samoa, and September 2011 in Guam.
