20170216 15473600 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 Fluke 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 Fluke were caught received the value of 0.1 (NUMi=0.1). All other data points where Fluke were caught kept their value as the number of Fluke 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 Fluke Presence" and "Fall Fluke Presence" Displayed interpolated categories were created by giving "Not Surveyed" (NUMi=0, 311 data points) and "Absent" Fluke (NUMi=0.1, no Fluke presence), their own category. Then, remaining data points were binned into the following categories based on the aggregation behavior of the species: Absent=0 Fluke Solitary=1 Fluke Low=2-10 Fluke Medium=11-25 Fluke High=26-50 Fluke Very High=51-100 Fluke Fluke Fisheries New England North Atlantic Trawl Resource Survey Coastal Fish Climate Change Shows the estimated presence/absence of Fluke 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 ZzZdie55rnxEmopLqPl5k7OxGTmlHSkp1cBnhU5Tc2FKrFGDDqKSihOx3mijh0DDvTqpW8vlvg/d NXa9KlU5436nNOPKwooorUgKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigApuxc5wM06i k0mBBcRKyFxww/WqdafWs+dQkpC9K5MTC3vIcJRp3kxlFJmjJJA9e9chSxcH3Fq5bS712nqP5VVa Nlk8vKs2M4B5xSI5Rgw6itac3TkXzxqadTSopFYMoYdDS16RiFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQA UUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAB6VQlhkBYkZHXNX6D05rOpTU1qDSaszKoIyMUp6nFJXmnC0k9Bysd6n PINJqM0dpJHI2dkrbcgZAakAAqcgPaPkbiGBGe3+eaGpSpuMdHv9xvC/I5J6k1q2UK+lWKp2jfvC PUVcr0KDvBHTJpu66hRRRWxIUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFGecd6oahqUdg0 W7BLnbgtjGe9ZVq1OjDnqOyJnOMFzS2J727FnbtKV3YGcZxxUkcolyV5XsfWuN1TUpL6VScCONmZ Fz3xyDjg10egzvc6WkshG4sRx7V5eEzSOJxcqUPhS/Lf8zkoYtVazgtraFuW1DkshwfTtUBtZNwH Wp7i8gttvmuF3cj3qH+0othcEbVySfTjPPpXXUlhuZpySa31Oh+z5rtky2ij7zE/SlmAji2ovB4J rDPiGVon2RjzMkgKM/KM+v0NXre9N3aiUE7W7HtXNRzDC1rwovWxMa8Kt4xfmTWufOX8f5Vfqjaj Mw9hmr1d+F+A6LWil5BRRRXQIKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKAMnUtai015HmRjH H8u7IAyRn8sYrjLjXG1u8klEa+VB8iOMHd3/ABxkV0HjTTpL3SpUjIXJDFv0rhPDwudLt5IpUgac SEYky3OOOOn6etfG5xWqynOjUlaN72t0/Wx4eYympOEpaaP+vQ6OKzeZcu6pbISQ2PvnuF9eg69K 3kgv1hiigcQWytgqoGSOpOfzrP0CGe71Y/aYrgiNCSZgQMHgYz1z7V1c01usex7iOPcMKSwH5VeV ZcpU3VbcenZv/gf02zTBYeLpuctP6/Iwza+TcxTSzSSCNNiKeg7VA0U0hmiGYCAVDA4DbvQY46VN qWhrcfvIrphls9cgjn+pzWbqWnXiwo6yFljHRTyMd658VTq0m/3bstdHft137fd6iqqdO/uaeT3N G2sS1sFm27ySsjAcuBx+HTNaKKqqQiqATk4HWsZdQSa0WHzRuKKN4bDFgBWkpkFyjBmaKRT6YFde Dq0FpSV9k3+H9W7nThZwUk1saVoPmY+1WqgtB+7J96nr6egrU0enU+IKKKK1ICiiigAooooAKKKK ACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigCOaISpg9e1cxf+H0muHljYxtg/IOhY/wBK6uo5YllHPB9a4cbgKeKj 7y1IqUadZctVXR53cnWEjj0m6uS4iZXR4+rr2U+vQ1qf2DO6rIJQjkAkHse9dHJpoNytwPmdAVH4 0vkyf3DXhf2O5Tk692tl6f1oclPLISlJ1ZXXT0Mqzsbu0jRPtKlQ3Klc8fWrs00dvGzy8R45PpU/ lSf3G/KkaFmBDRkg8EFetd1PDOjTcKd/nd/18js+pxhG1J6+ZlWtjocgd2uFOSAVkO0KfTtWvttE t0S3dCBnaFIP1qjHosMTApFIMPu9c+30rRhtTkbhtUdqnA4epTjyunGL7q/6mOHoTpfFGK9CzAu2 FffmpKOlFe9FWSR0t3dwooopiCiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACii igAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigD/2Q==
