The program focuses on estuarine areas important to commercial fisheries and includes data on commercial finfish and invertebrate species, as well as other species commonly captured in trawl sampling. This Florida dataset is a subset of the CAGES Relational Database which is a compilation of fishery-independent data contributed by natural resource agencies of the Gulf States (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida). This data set includes trawl and associated hydrographic data collected under the Fisheries-Independent Monitoring (FIM) Program, part of the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC). Trawl data were used to calculate CPUE (catch per unit effort) at each station for the years 1989 through 2005. purpose: The purpose of CAGES is to compile the fishery independent data from five Gulf States into a database to more easily compare the fisheries across the US Gulf of Mexico coast. This dataset includes data collected from Florida only. The CAGES database is intended for scientific research only. status: (MD_ProgressCode) completed pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Dr. Harmon Brown organisationName: NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service, Southeast Fisheries Science Center, Galveston Laboratory contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 409-766-3500 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: Galveston Laboratory, 4700 Avenue U city: Galveston administrativeArea: TX postalCode: 77551 country: USA hoursOfService: Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm, Central Standard Time role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) unknown descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: CoRIS_Metadata thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: NCEI Geoportal Filter date: (inapplicable) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: comparative assessment of gulf estuarine systems keyword: CAGES keyword: Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC) keyword: Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) keyword: FFWCC keyword: FWRI keyword: Fisheries-Independent Monitoring (FIM) Program keyword: estuary keyword: coastal bay keyword: distribution keyword: abundance keyword: occurrence keyword: fisheries keyword: fishery independent data keyword: CPUE keyword: catch per unit effort keyword: trawl keyword: finfish keyword: invertebrate keyword: nekton keyword: vertebrate keyword: crustacean keyword: salinity keyword: temperature keyword: dissolved oxygen keyword: secchi depth keyword: conductivity keyword: pH keyword: hydrological keyword: hydrographic keyword: Brown shrimp keyword: Pink shrimp keyword: White shrimp keyword: Blue crab keyword: Gulf menhaden keyword: Bay anchovy keyword: hardhead sea catfish keyword: Bighead searobin keyword: Silver Jenny keyword: Pinfish keyword: Sand seatrout keyword: Silver perch keyword: Spot keyword: Southern kingfish keyword: Atlantic croaker keyword: Black drum keyword: Red drum keyword: Striped mullet keyword: Spanish mackerel keyword: Bay whiff keyword: Gulf flounder keyword: Southern flounder keyword: Blackcheek tonguefish keyword: Hog choker keyword: Lined sole keyword: Farfantepenaeus (Penaeus) aztecus keyword: Farfantepenaeus (Penaeus) duorarum keyword: Litopenaeus (Penaeus) setiferus keyword: Callinectes sapidus keyword: Brevoortia patronus keyword: Anchoa mitchilli keyword: Ariopsis felis keyword: Prionotus tribulus keyword: Eucinostomus gula keyword: Lagodon rhomboides keyword: Cynoscion arenarius keyword: Bairdiella chrysoura keyword: Leiostomus xanthurus keyword: Menticirrhus americanus keyword: Micropogonias undulatus keyword: Pogonias cromis keyword: Sciaenops ocellatus keyword: Mugil cephalus keyword: Scomberomorus maculatus keyword: Citharichthys spilopterus keyword: Paralichthys albiguta keyword: Paralichthys lethostigma keyword: Symphurus plagiusa keyword: Trinectes maculatus keyword: Achirus lineatus type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: None date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Gulf of Mexico keyword: Gulf Coast keyword: Florida keyword: Apalachicola Bay keyword: Suwannee River keyword: Cedar Key keyword: Tampa Bay keyword: Charlotte Harbor keyword: Suwannee Sound type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: None date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > Gulf of Mexico > Florida keyword: COUNTRY/TERRITORY > United States of America > Florida keyword: OCEAN BASIN > Atlantic Ocean > Gulf of Mexico type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: CoRIS Place Thesaurus date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Numeric Data Sets > Biology type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus date: (missing) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Marine Invertebrates keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Salinity/Density > Salinity keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Ocean Chemistry > Oxygen keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Fish keyword: EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Ocean Temperature > Water Temperature type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: CoRIS Theme Thesaurus date: (missing) resourceConstraints: (MD_LegalConstraints) accessConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions useConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions otherConstraints: Access Constraints: None Use Constraints: None Distribution Liability: NOAA and NODC make no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty.

The Fisheries-Independent Monitoring (FIM) program, part of the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute of the FFWCC has been monitoring resource species in four regions of the Florida Gulf coast: Apalachicola Bay, the shallow Gulf area off the Suwannee River delta north of Cedar Key, Tampa Bay, and Charlotte Harbor. Trawl samples and hydrologic data were collected at randomly selected sites monthly in the tidally influenced riverine areas of our sampling universe (1989-2005) or on a seasonal (spring-fall 1989-1995 and 1998-2005) basis to target the main juvenile recruitment periods depending on the year in each of four estuarine areas. During 1996 and 1997 trawl samples and hydrologic data were collected monthly in both riverine systems and in the bays. Each of the four areas was subdivided into grids of 1 x 1 minute latitude and longitude. Each minute grid was further subdivided into microgrids using a 10 x 10 cell grid overlay. Each microgrid was also classified by habitat, and the percentage of all microgrids in each habitat defined the number of samples to be taken from that pool of microgrids. Data are for the years 1989-2005. Samples collected from 1989-1994 included both day and night hauls with those after 1994 being daytime collections only. Sampling in Suwannee Sound and Cedar Key began in 1996 but no trawl sampling occurred in 1998-2000. Sampling in Apalachicola Bay did not begin until 1998. Hydrographic data collected at each site included temperature and salinity. Observations were taken at 1-m depth intervals from the surface to the bottom. Water depth and habitat type also were recorded. Trawls were towed from 6.7 7.3-m (22 24-ft) wooden mullet skiffs, each powered by an outboard engine housed in a central well, thus leaving the rear deck and transom open for sampling operation. FFWCC used a 6.1-m (20-ft) two-panel otter trawl with 3.8-cm (1.5-in) stretch mesh webbing. The boat speed was set at about 2.2 kph (1.4 mph) to tow approximately 0.2 nm in 10 minutes (acceptable range was 0.16 to 0.24 nm). All fishery samples collected by FFWCC were processed following a standard set of protocols. These protocols ensured that an accurate size representation and number collected were recorded for each species in each sample, and that the data taken reflected the entire catch. All fish and selected macroinvertebrate species captured were identified to the lowest practical taxonomic level and counted. A random sample of at least 10 individuals (40 for selected species) was measured (standard length [SL] for teleosts, carapace width for crabs, and postorbital head length [carapace length] for shrimp) and recorded for each trawl. When the catch was estimated to include more than 1000 individuals, the catch could be subsampled. Subsamples were processed under the normal protocols and results extrapolated back to a whole catch (FFWCC 2010). processStep: (LI_ProcessStep) description: Catch data in trawls were converted to numbers caught per hectare (#/ha) using the tow times and calculated conversion factors. The conversion factor was calculated based on an assumed 80% spread of the width of the trawl webbing along the headrope (defined here as the headrope length) and the estimated distance towed in one minute calculated from reported tow times. The conversion factor is equal to the time needed (in minutes) for the trawl to cover one hectare. To calculate the CPUE the following formula was used: Conversion factor / Tow duration (min) X Number caught = #/ha. The conversion factor for Florida was calculated to be 55.92. return to top metadataMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (unknown) maintenanceNote: This metadata was automatically generated from the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadatastandard version FGDC-STD-001-1998 using the June 2011 version of the FGDC CSDGM to ISO 19115-2 transform.
