Summary
Sampling effort (number of trawls) of brown shrimp (Farfantepenaeus aztecus), pink shrimp (Farfantepenaeus duorarum), white shrimp (Litopenaeus setiferus), Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus), gray triggerfish (Balistes capriscus), Gulf butterfish (Peprilus burti), lane snapper (Lutjanus synagris), red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus), sand seatrout (Cynoscion arenarius), silver seatrout (Cynoscion nothus), spot (Leiostomus xanthurus), and vermilion snapper (Rhomboplites aurorubens) by 10-minute longitude by latitude blocks summarized from 11,637 40-ft shrimp trawls taken during the Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP) fishery-independent Summer and Fall Shrimp/Groundfish Surveys from 1987 to 2009. Effort is expressed as the number of trawls. Fishery-independent catch data from Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP) Summer and Fall Shrimp/Groundfish Surveys (1987 - 2009) 40 foot trawls with 1.63 inch mesh are used to map station locations at which trawling occurred.
