ES80 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DN202201

Description

This survey was conducted to estimate the abundance and map the distribution of menhaden (Brevortia tyrannus) that are overwintering in the mid-Atlantic Bight off the coast of New Jersey, USA. The survey was conducted using a shipboard ES80 echosounder and ES38-B split-beam Simrad transducer. Catches were completed using the commercial midwater trawl on board the F/V Dyrsten. This survey was funded under a NOAA SK grant to Genny Nesslage of the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.
