ME70 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During PC1304

Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (PC1304, ME70). The Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (SEFIS) was created by the National Marine Fisheries Service in 2010 and operates out of the NOAA Beaufort Laboratory. The survey conducts fishery-independent sampling and related applied research, focusing on the assessment of spatial variability in distribution and abundance of marine fish species within the snapper-grouper complex, via data collected from fish traps, video cameras, and acoustics.  The NOAA ship Pisces departed Cape Canaveral, FL on 12 June 2013 for a SEFIS research cruise in continental shelf and shelf-break waters off the southeastern U.S.  During this survey, 258 sq km of multibeam data were collected from 40 discrete areas between 28.2 Deg N and 32.1 Deg N.  A total of 399 concomitant trap-camera samples were collected. SEFIS program website:

EK60 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DS0604

California Current Ecosystem Survey 2006. The 2006 California Current Ecosystem Survey used two vessels: the NOAA FSV Oscar Dyson and the NOAA FRV David Starr Jordan. The plan was for the FSV Oscar Dyson was to survey the northern part and the FRV David Starr Jordan to survey the southern part using identical methods. However, equipment failures prevented trawling operations on the FRV David Starr Jordan, and trawling was only conducted from the FSV Oscar
Dyson and the survey plan of the FSV Oscar Dyson was extended to cover the entire West Coast down to San Diego, California. Both vessels collected water samples from a CTD-rosette, ichthyoplankton samples from
plankton nets and meteorological data from weather station sensors at prescribed and adhoc stations. At some of these and other locations, surface trawls were collected during night from the FSV Oscar Dyson. Underway operations on each ship included operating a continuous underway fish egg sampler (CUFES), an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP), multiple-frequency split-beam echosounders and a multi-beam echosounder.
Daytime underway operations included bird and mammal observations. The acoustic surveys were accomplished using Simrad EK60 split-beam echosounders. Four echosounders were operated on the David Starr Jordan at 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz, and five were operated on the Oscar Dyson at 18, 38, 70, 120 and 200 kHz. Each
5 echosounder was calibrated prior to the survey using the standard sphere method.

EK500 Water Column Sonar Data Collected During DE0303

NEFSC 2003 Spring Bottom Trawl Survey (DE0303, EK500). The NEFSC bottom trawl survey is a fisheries independent, multi-species survey that provides the primary scientific data for fisheries assessments in the U.S. mid-Atlantic and New England regions. Two bottom trawl surveys are conducted each year, one in the spring and one in the autumn. The survey is a standardized, stratified random design, with stratification based on bathymetry and multiple trawl sites within each stratum. Trawl sites are selected randomly, but the overall ship path is south to north. The survey covers the continental shelf and U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina into the Canadian EEZ. The primary gear is a bottom trawl, with CTD, multifrequency echosounder, and a host of other scientific sensor data collected ancillary to the bottom trawl catches.

The bottom trawl survey was normally conducted on the AL IV, but due to mechanical issues, the DE II was used for 2003 spring.

Acoustic-Trawl Survey of Walleye Pollock on the U.S. and Russian Bering Sea Shelf (DY1006, EK60). The Midwater Assessment and Conservation Engineering (MACE) program of NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC) conducted an acoustic-trawl (AT) stock assessment survey on the U.S. and Russian Bering Sea shelf during late spring/summer of 2010 to estimate the distribution and abundance of walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma). The survey was conducted from Bristol Bay, eastern Bering Sea in the U.S. to Cape Navarin, Russia, 7 June to 10 August aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, a 64 meter stern trawler equipped with acoustic and oceanographic instrumentation. The vessel departed Kodiak, Alaska on 5 June and arrived in Dutch Harbor on 7 August. The cruise was completed in three legs (leg 1, 5-24 June; leg 2, 29 June to 16 July; leg 3, 20 July to 7 August), with port calls in Dutch Harbor, Alaska; a personnel exchange occurred in Dutch Harbor on 18 June. Fisheries research operations were conducted on Snakehead plateau south of Kodiak Island 7-9 June and again in the Bering Sea 3-5 August. The EK60 echosounder system was calibrated at the start of the cruise in Three Saints Bay, Kodiak Island, Alaska 5-6 June, and at the end of the cruise in Anderson Bay, Unalaska Island, Alaska 6-7 August.
