Description:
"A data set containing shrimp, fish, crab, hydrographic, and resource information, collected from 1963 through 1980 by the Texas Parks and wildlife Department (TPWD), has been transcribed by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) into computer files, one file per year. This data set contains 18 years of biological and environmental data collected by TPWD biologists in the major bay systems in Texas. Although the core of the data set is length-frequency distributions for brown shrimp (penaeus azteclls), pink shrimp (~. dllorarl.1IIi.), and white shrimp (!. setiferus), the accompanying environmental data increases the categories of potential users from fisheries and population biologists to estuarine ecologist, hydrologists, and environmen- tal engineers. Additionally, some data were recorded for blue crabs (Callinectes spadius), speckled trout (Cynoscion nehulosus), sand seatrout ( arenarills), redfish (Sciaenops ocellatlls), black drum (Pogonias cromis), sheepshead (Archosargus prohatocephallls), and southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma)"--Introduction.
