To collect lengths and weights for size composition analysis and compare lengths of MHI vs. NWHI species that would otherwise be unattainable. underDevelopment Schemmel, Eva M eva.schemmel@noaa.gov Contact via email. pointOfContact asNeeded FRMD LHP PIFSC UFA bottomfish fish auction pelagic theme Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) place DOC/NOAA/NMFS/PIFSC > Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, 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.

Most species are within the vicinity of the Hawaiian Archipelago; it is noted if the fish has been imported. | Currentness: Ground Condition 2007-10-18 Dataset was created for the information collected from bottomfish species but during seasonal and TAC closures the sampling focus shifted to pelagic species. Opah is strongly represented in this dataset due to the discovery of a cryptic species and the additional sampling associated with this discover. Its frequent occurrence within this dataset is not an indicator of abundance, but rather a result of species-specific sampling. false eng false Data Table Column Notes for UFA Sampling Data 2025-02-13 publication dataset Data was collected in the field by PIFSC staff, and entered in table format into electronic spreadsheets.
