During the 2013 Fall Plankton Survey, plankton samples were collected from a systematic grid of stations to assess distribution, occurrence and abundance of the early life stages of a variety of species of fishes and invertebrates in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The survey specifically targets larvae of red drum, red snapper, other snapper species, king mackerel, and Spanish mackerel.
