I work in the Gulf and Caribbean Reef Fish Branch, which is part of the Population and Ecosystem Monitoring Division. Among other duties within our branch, we run a fishery-independent video survey that monitors reef fish populations in the Gulf of America (formerly Gulf of Mexico). One of my primary roles is to synthesize our video survey data and create indices for federally managed species that can be used in stock assessments or by fisheries managers.
