Point in time occurrences of vessels and marine animals in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, Biscayne National Park (BNP), Pennekamp State Park, and Oculina Bank HAPC are documented during 211 surveys. A data logger system has been developed to accurately geo-position vessel occurrences. Regression equations are computed to compare trailer counts at marinas and vessel usage in BNP. To document vessel usage (fishing effort), marine animal occurrences, MPA usage and 'fish the line' effects, and BNP trailer counts/vessel regression equations. completed Litz, Jenny 305-361-4224 305-365-4102 75 Virginia Beach Drive Miami FL 33139 Jenny.Litz@noaa.gov pointOfContact notPlanned https://ncei.noaa.gov/data/oceans/coris/data/NOAA/nmfs/sefsc/air_surveys/florida_sanctuary_airsurveys.jpg Air survey tracks September 1992- March 2004 JPEG EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/VERTEBRATES > FISH > SHARKS/RAYS/CHIMAERAS EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/VERTEBRATES > MAMMALS > CETACEANS EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/VERTEBRATES > REPTILES > TURTLES theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA > FLORIDA OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 VISUAL OBSERVATIONS > VISUAL OBSERVATIONS instrument Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Instrument Keywords 17.2 Airplane > Airplane platform Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Platform Keywords 17.2 Numeric Data Sets > Biology theme CoRIS Discovery Thesaurus EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Fish > Fishing EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Marine Mammals EARTH SCIENCE > Oceans > Marine Biology > Marine Reptiles > Turtles theme CoRIS Theme Thesaurus Dolphin > Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus).
