These are the data derived from the raw video and still images and from chevron fish trap catches collected as part of NOAA Fisheries SEFSC Panama City laboratorys fishery-independent survey of natural reefs on the northern half of the West Florida Shelf in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. They are used primarily to generate annual indices of relative abundance of federally-managed reef fishes for stock assessments and to inform fishery managers. Target species include snappers (red, vermilion, gray, and lane), groupers (gag, red, scamp), gray triggerfish, red porgy, white grunt, black seabass, hogfish, and amberjacks. These data also provide information on the fish community structure patterns and trends in annual recruitment, distribution, and age and size composition of many reef fish species habitat associations, structure, and distribution and station name and number, collection date, location, depth, and bottom temperature. underDevelopment Gardner, Chris L 850-234-6541 x 262 850-235-3559 3500 Delwood Beach Road Panama City FL 32408 chris.gardner@noaa.gov Contact by email preferred. custodian fishery independent ground truthing hard bottom multibeam reef fish side scan stereo cameras trapping video water column theme Gulf of Mexico Northeast GOM place DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast 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.
