Description:The NOAA Ship Pisces departed from Morehead City, NC, on 6 July 2021 for a Southeast Fishery-Independent Survey (SEFIS) research cruise in continental shelf and shelf-break waters off North and South Carolina. SEFIS was created by the National Marine Fisheries Service in 2010 and operates out of the NOAA-Beaufort Laboratory. This survey was created to conduct applied fishery-independent sampling and related research focusing on the assessment of spatial variability in distribution and abundance of red snapper and other reef species within the snapper-grouper complex, via data collected from fish traps, video cameras, and acoustics. Leg 1 was scheduled to occur from 4–16 July, 2021, and leg 2 was scheduled to occur from 18–31, 2021, but due to personnel issues, cruise dates changed to 6–16 July 2021 for leg 1 and 17–31 July 2021 for leg 2 (so only 1 day at-sea was lost in total). During this survey, chevron trap catches and associated underwater video recordings were collected from hardbottom habitats from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina to approximately Georgetown, SC. A total of 394 stations were sampled with camera-trap arrays over 26 sea days, at depths ranging from 18 to 109 m, along with 69 CTD casts.
