Count Component Title Abstract
1 NEFSC 2002 Surfclam and Ocean Quahog Survey (DE0206, EK500) The 2002 region-wide survey for Atlantic surfclam (Spisula solidissima) and Ocean Quahog (Arctica islandica) was conducted in continental shelf waters, from Delmarva Peninsula to Georges Bank aboard the FRV DELAWARE II. The survey, conducted by the NMFS Northeast Fisheries Science Center, provides indices of abundance and recruitment for both species. In addition, tows were made at 25 non-random sites during the survey to support on-going scientific studies.

        1 Delaware II (DE) Delaware II (DE) The NOAA Ship DELAWARE II conducts fishery and living marine resource research in support of NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Northeast Fisheries Science Center's (NEFSC) Woods Hole Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA. The ship's normal operating area is the Gulf of Maine, Georges Bank, and the continental shelf and slope from Southern New England to Cape Hatteras, NC. Typical assessment work includes groundfish assessment surveys and Marine Resources Monitoring, Assessment and Prediction (MARMAP) surveys. Research conducted from the DELAWARE II provides an understanding of the physical and biological processes that control year-class strength of key economical fish species. The vessel is operated by NOAA Marine and Aviation Operations.
