38937 NMFS_fish_site.shp Data Set Published / External 37140 CINMS_Assessment Project Completed 2006-01 Fish benthic trawls were completed by the National Marine Fisheries Service Groundfish Survey Program (NMFS GSP). Data from 477 fishery independent trawls ranging from 55-1200 m in depth were collected June-November in 1977, 1989, 1992, 1995, and 1997- 2002. Fish that were not present in at least 5% of the trawls were removed from this analysis, resulting in a dataset containing information on 59 fish species. Site groups were calculated using the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity coefficient with average means clustering (Romesburg, 1991). Gear included a 7.6-m head-rope semi balloon otter trawl with 1.25 cm codend mesh trawled for 5-10 minutes at each station. Data were analyzed to provide fish assemblage information as part of a more comprehensive biogeographic analysis of resources within southern California and the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. 284 In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act, the National Marine Sanctuary Program will incorporatethis assessment with cultural and socio-economic analyses to prepare a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement to fully analyze boundary change concepts.
