Launch the portal to explore, visualize and interact with information on marine species distributions. download mapDigital These files contain rasterized interpolated biomass distributions for fish and invertebrate species caught in NOAA Fisheries fishery-independent surveys. The distribution maps were produced for the Distribution Mapping and Analysis Portal (DisMAP) project. The distributions were generated from catch-per-unit-effort data from the fisheries-independent surveys. This data set covers 8 regions of the United States: Northeast, Southeast, Gulf of Mexico, West Coast, Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, Gulf of Alaska, and Hawai'i islands. These data were created as part of the DisMAP project to enable visualization and analysis of changes in fish and invertebrate distributions. These interpolated biomass layers provide information on the spatial distribution of species caught in the NOAA Fisheries fisheries-independent surveys. Information on species distributions is of paramount importance for understanding and preparing for climate-change impacts, and plays a key role in climate-ready fisheries management. The distribution maps were produced by NMFS OST. underDevelopment Karp, Melissa A (301) 427-8202 melissa.karp@noaa.gov pointOfContact Haverland, Timothy J 301-427-8137 301-713-4137 1315 East West Hwy Silver Spring MD 20910-3282 USA tim.haverland@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded https://apps-st.fisheries.noaa.gov/dismap/images/DisMAP_homepage_12_4_22_screenshot.PNG Browse graphic for DisMAP PNG EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/VERTEBRATES > FISH EARTH SCIENCE > BIOSPHERE > ECOLOGICAL DYNAMICS > SPECIES/POPULATION INTERACTIONS EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > AQUATIC SCIENCES theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 23.3 CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA > ALASKA CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA > HAWAII OCEAN > PACIFIC OCEAN > NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN > BERING SEA OCEAN > PACIFIC OCEAN > NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN > GULF OF ALASKA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 23.3 DOC/NOAA/NMFS/OST > Office of Science & Technology, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
