Abstract

Assessing rockfish abundance in untrawlable habitats is a key area of study for the Alaska Fisheries Science Center. In order to accurately estimate abundance knowledge of rockfish response to the observation platform must be known. In 2013, we performed a series of experiments to examine rockfish response to a stereo drop camera. These data area stored as image files, .Rdata files, .sql3 files and as .xlsx files.

Purpose

The purpose of this record is to document the main entities and attributes of the RACE rockfish response to drop camera systems database.
