We will conduct an ichthyoplankton survey in the Bering Sea in the vicinity of Pribilof Canyon, Alaska. This work is needed to describe larval fish and zooplankton assemblages in the Bering Sea - basin, slope, outer shelf - in spring. In particular, this area is a potential conduit for transport larvae of slope-spawning fishes (Greenland halibut, arrowtooth flounder, rockfish) to the continental shelf. Data on physical characteristics of the water column will also be collected. Satellite tracked drifters may be released in Bering and/or the Pribilof Canyon vicinity to study depth-discrete current trajectories.
