Background
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) conducts fishery-independent acoustic trawl surveys of the California Current Ecosystem (CCE) that address NOAA-s mission to provide critical data on stock abundances and distributions of Pacific hake (Pacific whiting) and multiple coastal pelagic fish species (CPS). The Integrated Ecosystem & Pacific Hake Acoustic Trawl Survey is conducted jointly with Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) Canada, extends from Point Conception, CA, to Dixon Entrance, AK, and produces a biomass estimate and age composition data for Pacific hake. The survey also includes euphausiids (a major prey species of Pacific hake) and pelagic rockfishes. The CCE Survey extends from the U.S.-Mexico border to the northern tip of Vancouver Island, Canada, and estimates the biomasses of multiple species of coastal pelagic fish species (CPS) including: Pacific sardine, Northern anchovy, Pacific and Jack mackerel, and Pacific herring.
NOAA Fisheries is integrating these two surveys, with the inaugural integrated survey set to start in 2025. The Integrated West Coast Pelagics Survey (IWCPS) will maximize use of valuable ship time, integrate knowledge, skills, methods and other resources across NMFS Science Centers and, with international partners, provide a more holistic understanding of the CCE.
The IWCPS will be conducted on a NOAA Fishery Survey Vess...
