For tow samples collected, data include: total number of individuals of a given species, number of diseased fish of that species, and extent of damage to the body and various fins for up to three selected diseased individuals. The specimens are identified by the NODC Taxonomic Code. The survey, institution, senior scientist and station are identified. Parameters defining environmental conditions at the sample location at the time of collection (e.g., water temperature and salinity, air temperature, wind direction and speed) may also be recorded.
