EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1801

Description

NOAA Ship Pisces conducted a survey of reef fish located on the US continental shelf and shelf-edge of the GOM from March 1 through May 6, 2018. Fifty three blocks were selected for sampling with stereo/video cameras, bandit reels and CTD during daylight hours; 25 in the western GOM and 28 in the eastern GOM. Individual sampling sites within each block were supplied prior to sailing. Mapping was conducted at night at randomly selected areas near the day’s sampling.
