The West Coast Vancouver Island synoptic bottom trawl survey was first conducted in 2004, and has been repeated every second year since. This survey is one of a set of long-term and coordinated surveys that together cover the continental shelf and upper slope of most of the British Columbia coast. The objectives of these surveys are to provide fishery-independent abundance indices of all demersal fish species available to bottom trawling and to collect biological samples of selected species"--Abstract, p. vi.
