Recruitment Energetics and Coastal Assessment

We study the processes regulating recruitment of forage fish and commercially valuable species. This entails measuring fish condition and evaluating habitat quality primarily in nearshore habitats.

Recruitment Energetics and Coastal Assessment Fish Processing and Food Habits Research

Recruitment Energetics and Coastal Assessment scientists provide fish processing services to several Auke Bay Laboratories. The goal is to better understand recruitment mechanisms and processes that describe the growth and survival of these populations relative to their prey, predators, and potential competitors. Sample processing in our labs focuses on measurements of fish size, energy density, and diet and feeding success of juvenile salmon and associated fish, as well as the abundance and composition of their zooplankton prey fields.

Alaska Fisheries Science Center's Auke Bay Laboratories Data Sets

Many data sets have been collected by Auke Bay Laboratories over the years. For our purposes, a data set is defined as a collection of data records organized around a common attribute. A data set is created by converting raw data into records. Raw data are collected by the trained observer, and then converted into processed data by one or more actions. A record is a collection of processed data organized around some common attribute, such as date of collection, locality of collection, individual animal and so forth. A data set is a collection of those records.

Arctic Ecosystem Research in Alaska
