20170216 09502300 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 Sandlance 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 Sandlance were caught received the value of 0.1 (NUMi=0.1). All other data points where Sandlancewere caught kept their value as the number of Sandlance 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 Sandlance" and "Fall Sandlance" Displayed interpolated categories were created by giving "Not Surveyed" (NUMi=0, 311 data points) and "Absent" Sandlance (NUMi=0.1, no Sandlance presence), their own category. Then, remaining data points were binned into the following categories based on the aggregation behavior of the species: Absent=0 Sandlance Low=1-25 Sandlance Medium=26-100 Sandlance High=101-500 Sandlance Very High=501-107083 Sandlance Sandlance Fisheries New England North Atlantic Trawl Resource Survey Coastal Fish Climate Change The estimated presence/absence of Sandlance 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 gAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooApyarYxagtjJcot0wyI+c4q5XNG2aHxRcTrGuy4QbjnkEcAn1Hp6ZP rWxFcFODyv8AKuChi5SlJVFazaM6DlUTb6OxdopAQwBByDS13mgUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFF ABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFIx2jOCfpQ9AM/UbKWeSCS2IR1cFyQMFe4oNsttBEisThQ PmJJP51M1238KgfWq5JY5NedU9lzOUd2Yyornst2TW8pRgpPyn9Ku1mVctpdy7T1H61rh6v2GdlS GlyeiiiuwxCiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACqlxMwYopwOlW6zmy7 E9zzXPiJNRSXUai5J2diMnNKOlJTq4CMKnKTmwpVYowYdRSUUJ2O40UcOgYd6dVK3l8t8H7pq7Xp UqnPG/U5px5WFFFFakBRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFN2LnOBmnUUmkwI LiJWUuOGH61TrTrMn2rMyRuuV5I64rjxUErSRUakaadwopM1BcLJMPKjbaTjcSOCM88+uM1xyfKr 2uTPGJL3Vdk6srjKsGHqDV22l3rtPUfyryrxFa+O9EjvpPDxtrmaVkEMCThzDGnzEBXUBmbJzjkA DFdF4E8YJ4l0aCeT5L+MbbqMrtCyfxKPpkU6FeULSmrX0fqTHEqcUpqzf5ndUUisGUMOhpa9goKK KKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAKKKKACiiigAooooAD0qhJBIGY7c85LDvV+kYgKS3QDmsql NTWopJNWZl1GVYs37zCnG3aORjrUVhdNe2qztA8IbosnDfiOxz2rPe0m0mJjYmKK2MjT3BYEkktu cgds149SolHms2vI82c0lzdCHXtSudMuYpmhjmicotuufmWXJ5x9PSs3xPoljp/i7S9ViuJoVu7g CSKMAo0i856jbkbiTz0rEe+Oraxc6hqCrClkD5WJMKTyBweuRt/SnSap/ang7VdWukmlu7bUIpEj HRNo+bA4x8hk6nGcd+Dx0qqxDqU4q/Veq1/H+tiKU/aOcVr1R6vZyB4yAcgcgj0qxXL+CtUTU9KD LhShKFQckdxn866ivfwVX2tCMz1IVPaRU7WuFFFFdRQUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAU UUUAFFFRyTCMgHnPvSclFXYN2HO+xc0kcgkzjoKpzTGQ46AVZtR+6z61hGrz1LLYUZxknYZNa72B RgvPIIzn/CsjU7bUheaetnBHLEZ/9ILnGxMdRW7JKseNx61A14ACSAAOSSe1ZV6VGWknYidKM9yh c+G7S9lZrpmeJkVPJAAUYOc+uaxvFcdtoHh9obHTwkE7Ms8ioCED4BLE9ySPwXtxWvaaneSCdrpY Y41bMciNlXTqDz7Yz75rgvH2vPdS3uiT+ats0axOY3wSXBII/L/OK451cNCDlCNnLrbX+tDncqKi 5RWr7bkPwUdLhdVvG1GO7uZ5xvWMYCIoITvjO3HQDt1r16uO8C6BZ6VpdnNDbiO4e3USN3I7ZH5V 2NdeX39jfvt6HRST5F/WgUUUV3GgUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAQyThJNpB4FZ 96XuonRXMbEYDjqKs3KkSk+oqsd2QAF24OcjJ9q82vJyvCWxnibcij3ITEl1Y8SCRVHyuD95h9Pe k0y9up7ZleNo1iIQMRyxxzSaXbXCXUsEzSNEpyrSHluB+nb8DW0TGyYDKARgYNY4ajOparfla0a7 /wDDHLh6bbU5adGu5i3F68d9BA4HlyAgOT0PpUeoW0dzAVuZGWHPzbTjIJHB/wA/lVbXb3TIIJN+ pWwuIQzRxmUbt4Xd93PJA5xXm2k+KNa1LWbZdzTBPvA8grnncOn49q4cTUnTcoVFdPX+u+phXU4u Slqtzt9R1GOKNdJs5mkmWURndnK88L78Y9qmsNOtNYka4vo1mljI3BkUAsMYORyeFH5n1pdR0z7Y ++3niSZ9wVBjA4wW3DnPH9Kr6bo8ulz2lpZ3MuBHum3KcMA/B3d+/HpXFy1FW5pK8dreXT8+vQ5q amq3M1ddu/Y7OyRVyFUBQAAAMAVbqC0H7sn3qevraCtTR9DP4tAooorYgKKKKACiiigAooooAKKK KACiiigAooooAKKKKAI5YhKuOhHQ1RZSpIYYIrSqOWJZRzwfWuetR59VuXGStyy2MW5m+0z/AGF8 hFAcknBbuAvrjHP1pJLNjHMsbKmcmIgcoxByfrya0XsvmV8KzLnaSORmm+TJ/cNedLDSbbmtf07G KwsJylKo79vT+v8AM+bvEvw/1PTvHd7eRi5uI0K3ED+WCZiwyw4PQHI+gxU+n3Ov6TqM93Z6etzb W0DF4W3b3ZhtG0DuMjr2zX0O1tukEjQZdeAxTkfjUY0+Jbh7gW371xhmweaxqUa0nrZpaap7f5kT ws3ommvPsYHho6VeaSltPJJBdyxtHJDNlWBKjcFJ+8O+a6BX061t7eztp4zsUJGgfccAcZ/Ad6iG lQrcvcLbkSvncwX1GM+xxUsGjQC4hmMZUwrtXntVUaVaEVThCPa+u3+ZFKlWopKKj/wDSgXbCvvz UlHSivcirJI6m7u4UUUUxBRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQAU UUUAFFFFABRRRQAUUUUAFFFFABRRRQB//9k=
