20170214 14093300 1.0 North American Profile of ISO19115 2003 TRUE Data was provided by the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF). Data was collected during the bi-annual (Spring and Fall) Resource Survey from 1978-2016. DMF provided the following information for every trawl: latitude, longitude, cruise number, stratum, trawling station, set dept, date of trawl, bottom temperature, number of each specie collected in net, weight of each specie. Latitude, longitude, and number of each specie collected in net data was used to create this visual. Separate data sets were made for spring data (green) and fall data (blue). Each dataset identifies the number of Bluefish caught during each trawl (3781 data points in the Spring, 3450 data points in the Fall) and the location of each trawl. To effectively interpolate using Natural Neighbor and to show areas that were “Not Surveyed”, shapefile points were created along the Massachusetts border, around the Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket border, and outside the extent of the DMF trawl. Not surveyed data points (n=311) were assigned the value, NUMi, of 0. Trawl data points where no Bluefishwere caught received the value of 0.1 (NUMi=0.1). All other data points where Bluefish were caught kept their value as the number of Bluefish caught. Natural Neighbor Interpolation Tool was then used for all these data points according to "NUMi" category. The interpolated data can be found in "Spring Bluefish Presence" and "Fall Bluefish Presence" Displayed interpolated categories were created by giving "Not Surveyed" (NUMi=0, 311 data points) and "Absent" Bluefish (NUMi=0.1, no Bluefish presence), their own category. Then, remaining data points were binned into the following categories based on the aggregation behavior of the species: Absent=0 Bluefish Solitary=1 Bluefish Low=2-25 Bluefish Medium=26-100 Bluefish High=101-500 Bluefish Very High=501-1000 Bluefish Bluefish Fisheries New England North Atlantic Trawl Resource Survey Coastal Fish Climate Change Shows the estimated presence/absence of Bluefish according to data collected by the MA Division of Marine Fisheries Resource Survey, 1978-2016 Amanda Davis and Dr. Michelle Staudinger of the Northeast Climate Science Center (NE CSC) and Brad Chase of Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MA DMF) /9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQEAAQABAAD/2wBDAAgGBgcGBQgHBwcJCQgKDBQNDAsLDBkSEw8UHRofHh0a HBwgJC4nICIsIxwcKDcpLDAxNDQ0Hyc5PTgyPC4zNDL/2wBDAQkJCQwLDBgNDRgyIRwhMjIyMjIy MjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjIyMjL/wAARCACFAMgDASIA AhEBAxEB/8QAHwAAAQUBAQEBAQEAAAAAAAAAAAECAwQFBgcICQoL/8QAtRAAAgEDAwIEAwUFBAQA AAF9AQIDAAQRBRIhMUEGE1FhByJxFDKBkaEII0KxwRVS0fAkM2JyggkKFhcYGRolJicoKSo0NTY3 ODk6Q0RFRkdISUpTVFVWV1hZWmNkZWZnaGlqc3R1dnd4eXqDhIWGh4iJipKTlJWWl5iZmqKjpKWm p6ipqrKztLW2t7i5usLDxMXGx8jJytLT1NXW19jZ2uHi4+Tl5ufo6erx8vP09fb3+Pn6/8QAHwEA AwEBAQEBAQEBAQAAAAAAAAECAwQFBgcICQoL/8QAtREAAgECBAQDBAcFBAQAAQJ3AAECAxEEBSEx BhJBUQdhcRMiMoEIFEKRobHBCSMzUvAVYnLRChYkNOEl8RcYGRomJygpKjU2Nzg5OkNERUZHSElK U1RVVldYWVpjZGVmZ2hpanN0dXZ3eHl6goOEhYaHiImKkpOUlZaXmJmaoqOkpaanqKmqsrO0tba3 uLm6wsPExcbHyMnK0tPU1dbX2Nna4uPk5ebn6Onq8vP09fb3+Pn6/9oADAMBAAIRAxEAPwD3+iii gAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAYZUVtpYA0+qFwMTk+tOiuCnDcr/KuZYi0nGQ4rmXmXaKQEMAQcg0t dIgooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKRjtGcE/Sh6AQzQeZy vBqvNEI0QhuT1FSNdt/CoH1quSWOTXBVnTd+UipC8lHqya3lKMFJ+U/pV2syrltLuXaeo/Wrw9X7 DOmpDS5PRRRXYYhRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABVS4mYMUU4HSrd ZzZdie55rnxEmopLqNRck7OxGTmlHSkp1cBGFTlJzYUqsUYMOopKKE7HcaKOHQMO9Oqlby+W+D90 1dr0qVTnjfqc048rCiiitSAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACm7FznAzTqK TSYEFxErKXHDD9ap1p1nzqEkKr0rjxMLe8i4VI002xlFJmgcnFcoLFwfRi1ctpd67T1H8qrmFlbG VY+gNMRyjhh1Fa05OnK7Lcoz06mlRSKwZQw6Glr0jEKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKK KKACiiigAooooAD0qhLDICxIyOuav0HpzWdSmprUGk1ZmVRSnqcUleacL0eg5GPmKc8g1PcoA4de jdfrVcdanX5rV8nkHIrSGqcTqot8vM3syW1bKFfSrFU7Q/vCPUVcrsoO8Ebzte6CiiitiAooooAK KKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKjkmEZAPOfek5KKuwbsOd9i5pI5BJnHQVTmmMhx0Aqz aj91n1rCNXnqWWwozjJOw2S1VzlTtPpUJtnDY61bklWPG49ag+1+i/rU1I0r66ByRbuxy2ij7zE/ SllAji2ovB4JqA3UhzjApvnOynLE1DqU0mooqMoy0TFtv9cv4/yq/VK2GZh7DNXa1w3wA1ypJ9go ooroEFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFAEMk4STaQeBVSWUytk9qkuVIlJ9RUIOP4Qf rXn1ZycnF7EYjSKS6iDGRuOAeh9T6VN5kgjATIUe1JHAZpVMik7ectVxthTbuAGMdadKnJpu9iaU EtZGaHdgBIwLDjjtRUskQjyQQcntVeRyhUBSdxxWErx+IwqRcHqPpwPy4po6U7GMe9Bphm1O5ZtB 8zH2q1UFoP3ZPvU9ejQVqaOup8QUUUVqQFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFAEcsQlX HQjoaospUkMMEVpVHLEso54PrXPWo8+q3LjJW5ZbFJnYqFLZApmKsNauPukGo/Jk/uGuSUJp6ovk py1epHilGB1GRTvKk/uN+VHlyf3G/Kp5ZdhOjC91uPSOFl5kw3oadKsSxDYwJz61F5T/ANxvyqWK 2Zmy4wv861jdrlUQjHld3b5FiBdsK+/NSUdKK74qySM27u4UUUUxBRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUU UUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQB//2Q==
