TI - Ongoing Study Plan: Pacific Marine Assessment Partnership for Protected Species (PacMAPPS) (NSL #PC-17-04)
AU - Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)
AB - Problem: In order for environmental assessments to be accurate, density estimates for protected species must be up-to-date. Currently, the supporting data is several years old.Intervention: Collaborate with ongoing NMFS efforts to conduct multiple biological surveys to estimate population densities of endangered or threatened marine species and fill spatial and temporal gaps in current survey efforts.Comparison: Comparisons between the older existing data sets and this new species density and distribution data will inform trends or changes in environmental variables and/or species densities and distributions.Outcome: Up-to-date assessments, including spatial and temporal distribution, of protected species in areas of the Pacific that are of special interest to BOEM.Context: Southern California, Central California, Northern California, Washington-Oregon, Hawaii
