Modified Herring Trawl Fish Catch Data in Gulf of Alaska Fjords, 2004-2011
This dataset contains catch data from trawls at the sampling stations. We deployed a modified herring trawl in coastal waters within glacier fjords of Alaska. Sampling stations in each fjord were chosen randomly from a 2.5 x 2.5 km grid overlaid on navigable waters in the fjord. The number of stations in each fjord was chosen to achieve a sampling frequency of about 1 sample per 15 km^2, and was based on available resources and logistical constraints (weather, navigational hazards and vessel time).
