Description:The National Marine Fisheries Service Southeast Fisheries Science Center Mississippi Laboratories and state partners have conducted groundfish surveys since 1972 in the northern Gulf of Mexico during the summer and fall under several sampling programs. In 1987, both groundfish surveys were brought under the same survey design within the Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP). These fisheries independent data were used to develop abundance indices for red grouper (Epinephelus morio). Since red grouper had only been observed in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, the time series had to be limited to 2009 – 2017, as no sampling previously was conducted in the eastern Gulf of Mexico.
