information
tableDigital
This data set contains multi-trip and single trip level quantities and value for all seafood products that are landed and sold by established seafood dealers and brokers as well as by the fishers themselves at fishing centers in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. These landings statistics include all commercially landed marine species and are identified by species (usually the local or common name). These data are collected by field samplers employed by the Department of Natural Resources through a trip ticket program. The program also collects data on the number of trips, type and amount of gear, the fishing location, hours fished, and the fishing center where the catches are landed.
Data for the individual trip reports are provided to the Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC). These data are formatted to be consistent with other landings statistics stored in the Accumulative Landings System; however, they are not summarized trips unless originally reported that way. By and large these are trip level data. The Puerto Rico codes are converted to the standard National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) codes.
Not all fishers comply with reporting requirements. The amount varies from year to year. For this reason these data are subject to correction by dockside survey data obtained by the PR DPNR several times a year at various coastal locations. The surveys originally determined the number of trips at the location but since 2003 they have collected the total pounds landed. These data are applied to the reported data to obtain a ratio of reported/survey data which is then divided into the reported data to correct for under-reporting on a coastal basis.
One of the original purposes for these data was to provide estimates of the quantities and value of the marine commercial fishing industries sector in the gross national product for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. This time series, which began in 1983, corrected by the coastal dockside survey factors provides the best data on total landings for the commercial fisheries in the Commonwealth.

These are reported landings. They have not been altered to include estimates for non-reported landings. Such estimates are included in the Cooperative Statistics Reports to NOAA/SEFSC from Puerto Rico DPNR.

These data are primarily trip based, especially in more recent years; however, they also include some summary data.

The table contains 2 sets of codes for species and gear. One set are the NOAA/NMFS codes and the other are the Puerto Rico codes. The Puerto Rico (Erdman) coding contains more detail in some cases.

Historical catch report forms in the 1980's sometimes listed several species on the same line with the intent that the correct species be circled. This may have led to clerical error especially if none or more than one species was circled. At least one of these examples: Hogfish Capitan (189) and Loro (190) also had a mis-coding where 190 (the code for Spanish Hogfish - Loro Capitan) was intended to be coded as (192) for Parrotfishes - Loro. Thus significant amounts of Parrotfish catch was recorded as spanish hogfish (an infrequent portion of the catch).

Reported Commercial Landings from Puerto Rico.

These are reported landings and have not been altered to include estimates of unreported landings. These are fishery dependent data reported by industry. Better representation of actual landings depends upon application of the coastal survey factors (see abstract).
Several trip ticket changes have occurred over time which affect the species data entered on the forms. The forms are pre-printed with multiple species and species groups under which catch is recorded. If a species group is not there the catch may not be included. Also if the species is known by the fisher, but only the group is on the form, the species definition may be lost as the catch is recorded under that group.
Data are in flat-file format. Care should be taken when summarizing data. Data elements in the form headers should be grouped, not summarized by trip.

Representativeness
Data provided by industry - fishers - Canvass of landings of all species in SE US and US Caribbean, State or Federally Managed . These are raw data. Data quality parameters vary by individual species and are determined during Stock Assessment. They may be found in the Stock Assessment Reports.
Industry generated report by permitted commercial fishers are collected by Puerto Rico DNRA Fisheries Statistics and processed for data entry into web-based data application. Edit checks are performed on entry by look-up tables and high/low pounds and prices along with compliance report are made available to PR-DNRA by SEFSC.
