String summary
"The data available for downloading is summarized data from the 2003-2005
U.S. West Coast Bottom Trawl Survey (WCGTS) of Groundfish Resources off
Washington, Oregon and California.
The Northwest Fisheries Science Center's Fishery Resource Analysis and
Monitoring Division (FRAM) completed the sixth in an annual series of
groundfish bottom trawl surveys in 2003. The survey was conducted June
24 to October 23, 2003 and targeted the commercial groundfish resources
inhabiting depths of 55 to 1,280 meters [m], (30 - 700 fathoms [fm])
from the area off Cape Flattery, Washington (latitude [lat.] 48°10'N)
to the U.S.-Mexican border (lat. 32°30'N) using chartered West Coast
commercial trawlers. These ongoing series of annual surveys, conducted
by FRAM since 1998, are designed to monitor long-term trends in
distribution and abundance of west coast groundfish, especially those
species of management concern. The 2003 survey represents the first
year in which the depth range was expanded to include both the
continental shelf (55 - 183 m) and continental slope (183 - 1,280 m)
area and the first year in which a stratified-random sampling design
was adopted.
In 2003, a total of 574 successful tows were completed out of 643
attempts. Simrad ITI net mensuration data, as well as global
positioning system (GPS) navigation data and bottom contact sensor
data, used to document performance (e.g. bottom tending), were
obtained for most tows.
An Aberdeen-style net with a small mesh (2\" stretched measure or less)
liner in the codend (to retain smaller specimens) was used to sample
fish biomass. Target duration of each tow was 15 minutes. Tow
duration was the time between touchdown and lift-off of the trawl net
from the seafloor based on readings from bottom contact sensors.
Catches were sorted to species, aggregate or other appropriate
taxonomic level and then weighed using an electronic,
motion-compensated scale. A total of 517 species or families (fish
and invertebrates) were identified within the survey area. Although
biological sampling effort continues to include Dover sole
(Microstomus pacificus), shortspine thornyhead (Sebastolobus
alascanus), longspine thornyhead (Sebastolobus altivelis), and
sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria), focus has increasingly shifted to
encompass all groundfish species of management concern. Up to 100
length measurements, sex determinations, and individual weights
and up to 25 age structures were collected per haul for these species.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its
selection constraints.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of
constraints (e.g., variable<value),
each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").
For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
