Summary

Abstract

The fish polygons depicted in the FISH data layer include selected forage fish, marine benthic fish, and herring spawning grounds. Not all species of environmental, recreational, or commercial interest are depicted. The forage fish areas are for capelin, Pacific herring, and Pacific sand lance. The entire coastal area of Prince William Sound can be considered as important waters for anadromous fish (represented in the FISHL data set). In addition, the National Marine Fisheries Service has classified all waters of Prince William Sound as essential fish habitat for Walleye pollock, Pacific cod, yellowfin sole, rock sole, flathead sole, arrowtooth flounder, sablefish (blackcod), sculpin spp., and pink, chum, chinook, coho, and sockeye salmon. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
