Basic biological data from fish caught during the Beaufort Sea Marine Fishes Project (BSMFP), August and September 2013 / by Krystal Woodard, Andrew R. Majewski, Mark Ouellette, Sheila Atchison, and James...: Fs97-13/1360E-PDF

"From August 2nd to September 9th, 2013, Fisheries and Oceans Canada conducted a baseline survey of marine fishes and their habitats in the southern Canadian Beaufort Sea and Amundsen Gulf as part of the Beaufort Regional Environmental Assessment (BREA) called the Beaufort Sea Marine Fishes Project (BSMFP). Sampling was conducted from the F/V Frosti at 53 stations along 8 transects. Standardized sampling was conducted using benthic trawling nets. The BSMFP is the first research project to use a large research trawls to assess the biodiversity and abundance of offshore marine fishes in this area. In total, 48 species of fish were caught, one of which was a new occurrence in the Canadian Beaufort Sea, Lycodes lavalaei. This report contains information on fishing net deployments, catch per unit effort (CPUE), and basic biological data for all fishes caught"--Abstract, page ix.
