abstract: Primary objectives were to assess the occurrence, abundance and geographical distribution of the early life stages of fall spawning fishes, especially red drum, red snapper and other snapper species, and king and Spanish mackerel, Gulf-wide on the U.S. continental shelf using a bongo frame fitted with 0.335 mm mesh nets and a neuston frame fitted with a 0.950 mm mesh net at selected SEAMAP stations, and describe the pelagic habitat of fish larvae through measurements of various physical and biological parameters including salinity, fluorescence, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and chlorophyll.
purpose: The SEAMAP fall plankton survey collects samples from a systematic grid of stations to assess distribution, occurrence and abundance ofthe early life stages of a variety of species of fishes and invertebrates. The survey specifically targets larvae of red drum, red snapper and other snapper species, and king and Spanish mackerel.

description: The Simrad EK60 Scientific Sounder system is a new generation fishery researchtool, based on experience from the EK500. The new electronic hardware is combined with up to date PC processing and Windows operation. The EK60 provides facilities for accurate echo sounding, data storage, data analysis and reporting results. The system communication is through Ethernet, which gives flexibility in the location of the EK60 system units and allows easy access to data from other instruments or stations on a vessel network. A post processing software, BI60, is also included in the EK60 system.
