Description:
"The eastern Bering Sea bottom trawl survey has been conducted annually since 1975 by the Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering Division of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service. The purpose of this survey is to collect data on the distribution and abundance of crab, groundfish, and other benthic resources in the eastern Bering Sea. These data are used to estimate population abundances for the management of commercially important species in the region. In 2012, 376 standard stations were sampled on the eastern Bering Sea shelf and 20 stations were resampled in Bristol Bay at the end of the standard survey to account for the effects of cold water temperatures on female red king crab maturity"--Abstract.
