Description:The objectives of the survey were to: 1) acoustically map the distributions and estimate the abundances of CPS, including Pacifc sardine (Sardinops sagax), Northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax), Pacifc herring (Clupea pallasii), Pacifc chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus), and jack mackerel (Trachurus symmetricus); and krill (euphausiid spp.); 2) characterize their biotic and abiotic environments, and investigate linkages; and 3) gather information regarding their life history parameters. The survey domain encompassed the anticipated distribution of the northern sub-population of sardine and the northern and central sub-populations of Northern anchovy o˙ the west coasts of the U.S. and Canada, from approximately Cape Scott, British Columbia to San Diego, CA. The sampling domain was constrained by the modeled distribution of potential sardine habitat (Zwolinski et al., 2011), information gathered from other concurrent research projects (e.g., CalCOFI samples) or the fshing industry (e.g., sardine bycatch or anchovy catch), and the number of days available to the survey.
