EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During NYWEA-NF17-09
Seafloor Characterization and Hydrographic Mapping of the New York Bight to Support Coastal and Ocean Planning (NF1709, EK60). Scientists will collect high resolution multibeam and acoustic fisheries data in mid-water\ndepths approximately 10 to 60 meters so as to continue to characterize seafloor habitats\nwithin New York Call Area. The objective of this project is to collect a multibeam\nbathymetry dataset with 100% seafloor ensonification, along with multibeam backscatter\nsuitable for seafloor characterization. Fishery acoustics data will be collected to\ncharacterize broad-scale fish abundance, biomass, and utilization patterns, as well as to\nlocate and document fish spawning aggregations. Multibeam data will be collected to\nconform to IHO Order 1 (less than 100m) and Order 2 (>100m) accuracy standards. The strategies\ndeveloped for each survey area will take into account the minimum depths, general\nbathymetry, and time allotment.
