MMSReefish Study Databases from 1993-1999 field collections (SEC7-95-11 Fish Mortalities From Explosive Removal of Petroleum Platforms)
Data Set
Completed
To estimate fish population size prior to detonation of explosives, a fish mark recapture study was conducted. Fish were captured on rod and reel using assorted hook sizes. Traps were occasionally used to supplement catches. Fish were tagged with plastic t-bar tags under the dorsal fin using tagging guns. Total length and species were recorded. Only fish that were alive and in good condition were released.
Spreadsheet
Tag_Release includes data for fish that were tagged and released alive and in good condition prior to detonation of explosives at the platforms.
