the area between eastern Long Island and New Jersey, and out to the shelf break. The other program components include seasonal
cruises to acoustically survey plankton and fish with net tow ground truthing combined with physical/chemical hydrocast
measurements and marine mammal surveys. This real-time dataset includes measurments of temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a,
