FISHERY SURVEY - FISHING DURATION and Other Data from SUN COASTER From Gulf of Mexico from 1983-12-06 to 1985-09-21 (NCEI Accession 8600272)
Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Fish/Shell-fish Surveys (F123) format.
The F123 format is used for data from field sampling of marine fish and shellfish. The data derive from analysis of midwater or bottom tow catches and provide information on population density and distribution. Cruise information, position, date, time, gear type, fishing distance and duration, and number of hauls are reported for each survey. Environmental data may include meteorological conditions, surface and bottom temperature and salinity, and current direction and speed. Bottom trawl or other gear dimensions and characteristics are also reported. Catch statistics (e.g., weight, volume, number of fish per unit volume) may be reported for both total haul and for individual species. Biological characteristics of selected specimens, predator/ prey information (from stomach contents analysis), and growth data may also be included. A text record is available for comment.
