ME70 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1505

Description

2015 Carbbean Reef Fish Survey (PC1505, ME70). Objectives of the 2015 Caribbean Reef Fish Survey were to assess relative abundance of reef fish species around the US Caribbean Islands, estimate length-frequency distributions of sampled species, collect otoliths from fish for age/growth analysis, collect conductivity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, and transmissivity data profiles of the water column at each sample site, and collect acoustic echosounder data with Simrad ME70 and EK60 echosounders at each sample site.
