Published by NOAA NMFS SWFSC Environmental Research Division | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 06:08 PM | Dataset Last Updated: May 24, 2016 at 12:00 AM
Fish egg counts and standardized counts for eggs captured in CalCOFI icthyoplankton nets (primarily vertical [Calvet or Pairovet], oblique [bongo or ring nets], and surface tows [Manta nets]). Surface tows are normally standardized to count per 1,000 m3 strained. Oblique tows are normally standardized to count per 10 m2 of surface sampled. This table includes only tows where one or more eggs were captured for the species selected by the user, i.e., no "zero" tows. The "Egg Counts" table includes all tows by species, i.e., both positive and negative tows.
