Forage Fish Morphology Data from Prince William Sound, Alaska
One table with fish morphology measurements from a sample of each fish species caught at each sampling station during surveys in Prince William Sound, Alaska. The data include: date, time, latitude, longitude, fishing method, fish common name, total length, fork length, weight, and whether or not that fish was saved. Various catch methods were used to obtain fish samples for aerial and hydroacoustic validations, including: modified herring trawl, purse seine, beach seine, gillnet, cast net, dip net, and jig.
