5MF03 Seacat data

The objectives of this cruise are to conduct an ichthyoplankton survey and process oriented studies in the region between Unimak Pass, the Shumagin Islands, and through Shelikof Strait to Kodiak Island, Alaska, so that we may estimate the abundance, transport, and factors influencing the survival of young walleye pollock larvae. We will also occupy stations on Line 8 to continue our 18-year time series of environmental and biological conditions in Shelikof Strait. In the event of high algal concentrations encountered at a survey station in the strait region and in the sea valley region, sampling will be conducted for a forage fish diet study.
