Prior to 1987, the summer survey was conducted under Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP) protocols; however, the fall survey operated independent of SEAMAP and dates back to 1972. Data from these standardized surveys were provided to the Natural Resources Damage Assessment (NRDA) to support assessment of the environmental impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill which occurred in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis. completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact HTTPS NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact asNeeded https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/metadata/landing-page/bin/gfx?id=gov.noaa.nodc:0147703 Preview graphic PNG 0147703 NCEI ACCESSION NUMBER 2016-03-30 publication biological data CATCH STATISTICS CHLOROPHYLL DEPTH - BOTTOM DEPTH - OBSERVATION DISSOLVED OXYGEN FISH SPECIES FISHERY SURVEY INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION - LENGTH INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION - SEX INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION - SEXUAL MATURITY INDIVIDUAL FISH EXAMINATION - WEIGHT INDIVIDUAL IDENTITY LATITUDE LONGITUDE OXYGEN SALINITY SALINITY - BOTTOM WATER TAXONOMIC CODE turbidity theme NODC DATA TYPES THESAURUS CTD trawl visual observation instrument NODC INSTRUMENT TYPES THESAURUS biological chemical fish examination in situ laboratory analyses survey survey - biological trawl visual observation water chemistry theme NODC OBSERVATION TYPES THESAURUS Caretta NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter NOAA Ship Oregon II Tommy Munro WEATHERBIRD II platform NODC PLATFORM NAMES THESAURUS NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center Pascagoula Laboratory dataCentre NODC COLLECTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS NOAA Southeast Fisheries Science Center Pascagoula Laboratory dataCentre NODC SUBMITTING INSTITUTION NAMES THESAURUS Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP) project NODC PROJECT NAMES THESAURUS Coastal Waters of Alabama Coastal Waters of Florida Coastal Waters of Louisiana Coastal Waters of Mississippi Coastal Waters of Texas Gulf of Mexico place NODC SEA AREA NAMES THESAURUS oceanography theme WMO_CategoryCode 2012-09-15 publication DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2026 revision 24 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Greenbelt MD https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords HTTPS GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.

At the end of each survey data are reviewed for accuracy/relevance by chief scientists. Specimens that cannot be identified during the survey are identified in the laboratory.; Data Quality Information: Validation routines are applied during data entry to ensure the integrity of data collected. Data validation routines are also applied as data are migrated into the centralized data management system asNeeded Metadata are developed, maintained and distributed by NCEI. Updates are performed as needed to maintain currentness.
