Alaska Physical And Oceanographic Research

Physical and oceanographic conditions affect where fish and crab species spawn, feed and develop. This information has important implications for future fish and crab population size.

Bering Arctic and Subarctic Integrated Survey

In order to improve monitoring and enforcement efforts, the North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission (NPAFC) scientists developed BASIS (Bering-Aleutian Salmon International Survey) during 2002, a comprehensive survey of the Bering Sea epipelagic ecosystem.

Zooplankton Distribution and Abundance Studies in Alaska

We study zooplankton to help us assess the ecosystem. The distribution, abundance, and composition of the zooplankton can all serve to indicate the feeding conditions a young fish encounters. We continue to develop innovative approaches to use zooplankton as indicators for ecosystem condition and to track changes in the environment that may potentially impact fish.

A Comparison of Sampling Methods for Larvae of Medium and Large Epipelagic Fish Species During Spring SEAMAP Ichthyoplankton Surveys in the Gulf of Mexico

Results from this comparison of sampling methods show sampling effectiveness strongly depends on the depth fished by the net and that the S‐10 net was more effective than standard SEAMAP bongo and neuston nets.
