1MF10 SeaCAT Data


To conduct an ichthyoplankton and juvenile fish survey in the Eastern Bering Sea. This work is needed to describe larval fish and zooplankton assemblages in the Bering Sea in Autumn. In particular, this area is a known nursery area for northern rock sole, yellowfin sole, walleye pollock, and Pacific cod, and abundances of larvae and juveniles at this time of year are high. Zooplankton data and data on physical characteristics of the water column will also be collected. Beam trawling activities will be conducted to study settlement and nursery areas for age-0 flatfishes. Benthic samples will be collected to determine settlement substratum and prey resources for age-0 flatfishes.
