Central and North BC

Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has been conducting surface water trawl surveys since 1992 in the coastal waters of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon and Alaska and in the high seas of the Gulf of Alaska. These surveys initially focused on determining the migratory patterns (1992-2002) and on the growth and physiology (2003-2016) of juvenile Pacific Salmon. Since 2016, these surveys have been broadened to monitor the whole pelagic ecosystem, retaining a focus on juvenile Pacific Salmon. Surveys were conducted in central north coast and inlets of British Columbia from Southern Queen Charlotte Sound to Northern Haida Gwaii, including the west coast of Haida Gwaii and Hecate Strait, from 1995 to 2020. All records are from shelf waters shallower than 400 meters.
