We will conduct bottom trawl sampling in Bering Canyon to collect ripe adult Greenland halibut (Reinharditus hippoglossides), and we will conduct an ichthyoplankton survey in the same vicinity to collect ichthyoplankton. This work is needed to describe Greenland halibut spawning ecology, as well as the distribution of eggs and larvae over the slope and in Bering Canyon in winter. The work will also be used in the study of transport and early life history of this species. Data on physical characteristics of the water column will also be collected. We will also deploy 2 oceanographic instrumentation moorings, one in Bering Canyon and one on the EBS shelf in the vicinity to Unimak Island.
