Description:

The objectives of the survey were to: (1) determine the distribution, relative abundance and biological data for surfclams (Spisula solidissima) and ocean quahogs (Arctica islandica); (2) collect dredge performance readings on each dredge haul, utilizing archiving, multi-sensor sampling devices (Star-Oddi and Madgetech) attached to the commercial clam dredge; (3) collect adductor muscle meat weights and shells from surfclams and meat weights from ocean quahogs on a subset of station locations; (4) establish new standardized protocols and operations by transitioning the shellfish survey from a N O A A Fisheries vessel (N O A A Ship Delaware II) to a commercial platform; (5) conduct a series of selectivity dredge hauls with a second lined dredge to characterize the capture of smaller surfclams and ocean quahogs not retained in the commercial-sized gear.
