Delaware / New Jersey / Pennsylvania 2014 ESI FISH Polygons, Lines

Description

This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for marine, estuarine, anadromous, and freshwater fish species in Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania. Vector polygons in this data set represent fish distribution, concentration areas, spawning areas, and anadromous fish spawning runs. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the FISHL data layer, part of the larger Delaware/New Jersey/Pennsylvania ESI database, for additional fish information.
