Gulf of Mexico shark pupping and nursery (GULFSPAN) survey in Tampa Bay from 2022-04-11 to 2022-10-26 (NCEI Accession 0281828)

browse graphicPreview graphic
The Gulf of Mexico Shark Pupping and Nursery (GULFSPAN) survey is a NOAA-led fishery-independent survey that examines the distribution and abundance of juvenile sharks in coastal areas of the Gulf of Mexico. The data describe coastal shark abundance, based on paired gillnet and longline surveys conducted monthly from April to October, and environmental data from Tampa Bay.
