This survey is part of an integrated project designed to study the structure and function of the pelagic ecosystem on the Vancouver Island Continental Shelf (< 200 m bottom depth). The main goal of the survey is to understand factors affecting the distribution, abundance, and food web linkages of pelagic fish species, such as Pacific Herring and juvenile salmon. Stations from randomly selected blocks in each stratum (Map 1) will be sampled with a midwater trawl net towed at the surface or 15 m depth during daylight and night time hours. |
