Southern California Shelf Rockfish Hook and Line Survey (station)
This layer is intended to represent the geographic extent of NOAA Fisheries’ Southern California Shelf Rockfish Hook and Line Survey. The Southern California Shelf Rockfish Hook and Line Survey started in 2003 and is led by NMFS Northwest Fisheries Science Center. This survey samples ecologically and economically important shelf rockfish species over untrawlable habitats in the Southern California Bight. The survey is a cooperative effort between NOAA Fisheries, Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission, and the Southern California sportfishing industry to develop fishery-independent time series of abundance and biological data for use in stock assessments for tens of groundfish species in the region. NOAA’s Northwest Fisheries Science Center partners with the sportfishing fleet to sample over 200 locations annually. Survey biologists collect information about the abundance, biology, ecology, and genetics of species to support research into cryptic species, population structure, and eDNA applications. Oceanographic data profiles are also generated for each site visited.
