ME70 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1703

Metadata Updated: September 17, 2021

Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (SEFIS)(PC1703, ME70). NOAA Ship Pisces will conduct applied fishery-independent sampling focusing on: 1. Assessment of spatial variability in distribution and abundance of species within the snapper-grouper complex. 2. Comparative analysis of fish traps, video cameras, and acoustics. 3. Bathymetric and backscatter data collection (for subsequent habitat mapping) over hardbottom habitats. 4. Collect environmental and water quality information using Conductivity-Temperature-Depth sensor (CTD) casts and expendable bathythermographs (XBTs). 5. Periodic hook-and-line sampling for additional life history and diet samples.
