  Description:
    Abstract:
      The Southern California Bight (SCB; Figure I-1),
      an open embayment in the coast between Point
      Conception and Cape Colnett (south of Ensenada),
      Baja California, is an important and unique
      ecological resource.  The SCB is a transitional
      area that is influenced by currents from cold,
      temperate ocean waters from the north and warm,
      tropical waters from the south.  In addition, the
      SCB has a complex topography, with offshore
      islands, submarine canyons, ridges and basins,
      which provide a variety of habitats.  The mixing
      of currents and the diverse habitats in the SCB
      allow for the coexistence of a broad spectrum of
      species, including more than 500 species of fish
      and several thousand species of invertebrates.
      The SCB is also a major migration route, with
      marine bird and mammal populations ranking among
      the most diverse in north temperate waters.  The
      coastal zone of the SCB is a substantial economic
      resource.  Los Angeles/Long Beach Harbor is the
      largest commercial port in the United States, and
      San Diego Harbor is home to one of the largest US
      Naval facilities in the country.  More than 100
      million people visit southern California beaches
      and coastal areas annually, bringing an estimated
      $9B into the economy.  Recreational activities
      include diving, swimming, surfing, and boating,
      with about 40,000 pleasure boats docked in 13
      coastal marinas within the region (NRC 1990).
      Recreational fishing brings in more than $500M per
      year.  The SCB is one of the most densely
      populated coastal regions in the country, which
      creates stress upon its marine environment.
      Nearly 20 million people inhabit coastal Southern
      California, a number that is expected to increase
      another 20% by 2010 (NRC 1990).  Population growth
      generally results in conversion of open land into
      non-permeable surfaces.  More than 75% of southern
      Californian bays and estuaries have already been
      dredged and filled for conversion into harbors and
      marinas (Horn and Allen 1985).  This hardening of
      the coast increases the rate of runoff and can
      impact water quality through addition of sediment,
      toxic chemicals, pathogens and nutrients to the
      ocean.  Besides the impacts of land conversion,
      the SCB is already home to fifteen municipal
      wastewater treatment facilities, eight power
      generating stations, 10 industrial treatment
      facilities, and 18 oil platforms that discharge to
      the open coast.  Each year, local, state, and
      federal agencies spend in excess of $31M to
      monitor the environmental quality of natural
      resources in the SCB (Schiff et al 2001).  At
      least 75% of this monitoring is associated with
      National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
      (NPDES) permits and is intended to assess
      compliance of waste discharge with the California
      Ocean Plan and the federal Clean Water Act, which
      set water quality standards for effluent and
      receiving waters.  Some of this information has
      played a significant role in management decisions
      in the SCB.  While these monitoring programs have
      provided important information, they were designed
      to evaluate impacts near individual discharges.
      Today, resource managers are being encouraged to
      develop management strategies for the entire SCB.
      To accomplish this task, they need
      regionally-based information to assess cumulative
      impacts of contaminant inputs and to evaluate
      relative risk among different types of stresses.
      It is difficult to use existing data to evaluate
      regional issues because the monitoring was
      designed to be site-specific and is limited to
      specific geographic areas.  The monitoring
      provides substantial data for some areas, but
      there is little or no data for the areas in
      between.  Beyond the spatial limitations, data
      from these programs are not easily merged to
      examine relative risk.  The parameters measured
      often differ among programs.  Even when the same
      parameters are measured, the methodologies used to
      collect the data often differ and interlaboratory
      quality assurance (QA) exercises to assess data
      comparability are rare.  Previous Regional
      Monitoring Studies  To begin addressing these
      concerns, there have been two previous regional
      monitoring efforts.  The first regional monitoring
      survey in 1994, called the Southern California
      Bight Pilot Project (SCBPP), was a compilation of
      12 agencies that cooperatively sampled 261 sites
      along the continental shelf between Point
      Conception and the United States/Mexico border.
      The second regional monitoring survey, called the
      Southern California Bight 1998 Regional Monitoring
      Project (Bight98), was comprised of 64 agencies
      that cooperatively sampled 416 sites between Point
      Conception and Punta Banda, Mexico.  In both
      surveys, assessments were made of water quality,
      sediment contamination, the status of biological
      resources and species diversity, and the presence
      of marine debris in depths of 10 to 200m, with
      some special emphasis in areas of anthropogenic
      inputs such as large publicly owned treatment
      works (POTWs) or large river and creek mouths.
      However, Bight98 extended what was done in 1994
      by adding additional habitats such as offshore
      islands and inshore areas like bays/harbors, as
      well as additional areas of anthropogenic inputs
      such as marinas, ports, and small POTWs.
      Moreover, a regional evaluation of shoreline water
      quality was added in 1998 that provided our first
      evaluation of the swimmability of southern
      California beaches during dry and wet weather.
      Benefits derived from both the SCBPP and Bight98
      also included the development of new useful
      technical tools that could only be developed with
      regional data sets and participation by multiple
      organizations.   For example, the project produced
      iron-normalization curves for the SCB, allowing
      distinction between natural and anthropogenic
      contributions of metals in sediments (Schiff and
      Weisberg 1998).  A Benthic Response Index was
      developed that integrates complex benthic infaunal
      data into an easily interpreted form that
      describes the degree of perturbation at a site
      (Bergen et al. 1998).  Newer, cheaper
      microbiological methods were tested and evaluated
      alongside traditional microbial measurement
      methods and now have been accepted by both the
      state health agencies for routine shoreline
      monitoring (ref).  Bight98 also improved the
      comparability among the major laboratories in the
      SCB as a result of the quality assurance and
      quality control (QA/QC) laboratory
      intercalibration exercises for chemistry and
      microbiology.  The project also produced a series
      of manuals containing standardized field,
      laboratory and data management activities that
      increased continuity of data and data reporting
      among participants, even after the regional
      monitoring surveys were completed.  2003 Survey
      The proposed Southern California Bight 2003
      Regional Monitoring Project (Bight03) is a
      continuation of the successful cooperative
      regional-scale monitoring begun in southern
      California during the 1990s.  Bight03 builds
      upon the previous successes and expands on the
      1998 survey by including new participants,
      sampling more habitats, and measuring more
      parameters or using new methods.  [Number]
      organizations, including international and
      volunteer organizations, have agreed to
      participate (Table I-1).  The inclusion of
      multiple participants, many of them new to
      regional monitoring, provides several benefits.
      Cooperative interactions among many organizations
      with different perspectives and interests,
      including a combination of regulators and
      dischargers, ensures that an appropriate set of
      regional-scale questions will be addressed by the
      study.  The additional resources brought by
      numerous participants also expands the number of
      habitats and indicators that will be sampled.
      Sampling for Bight03 will include all of the
      areas sampled in 1998, plus a new focus on
      nearshore habitats (coastal lagoons) and offshore
      habitats (inner continental slopes and basins).
      Several new technologies will be brought to bear
      in Bight03 including remote sensing from
      satellite, aerial, and land-based platforms, new
      microbial genetic and phenotypic source tracking
      techniques, and radiodating of sediments to
      determine age and accumulation of chemicals in
      sediments.
    Purpose:
      The overall goal of the coastal ecology component
      of Bight03 is to assess the condition of the
      bottom environment and the health of the
      biological resources in the SCB.  To accomplish
      this goal, Bight03 will focus on two primary
      objectives:      1.Estimate the extent and
      magnitude of ecological change in the SCB,
      2.Determine the mass balance of pollutants that
      currently reside within the SCB.  The first
      objective, estimating the amount of area (i.e.,
      number of acres) in the SCB that ecological
      conditions differ from reference conditions, is a
      departure from traditional approaches to
      environmental monitoring, which generally focus on
      estimating average condition.  Estimating the
      areal extent of ecological change offers several
      advantages.  First, it provides a more direct
      assessment of status.  For instance, identifying
      that the average concentration of dissolved oxygen
      in the Bight is 6.7 ppm provides less useful
      information for environmental managers than does
      identifying what percentage of the area in the
      Bight fails to meet water quality standards.  A
      second advantage of estimating areal extent
      concerns trend detection.  If conditions in the
      Bight change over time such that some areas
      improve and others worsen, the average condition
      might not change.  By estimating the areal extent
      of alteration, we will be better able to describe
      these changes.  There are two subobjectives within
      the areal extent and magnitude objective.  The
      first subobjective is to determine if the areal
      extent and magnitude vary among geographic
      regions. If we answer this question, then managers
      can determine if specific areas are in worse
      condition than others, such as areas near
      anthropogenic inputs versus those areas distant
      from inputs.  Therefore, Bight03 will compare
      condition among 11 geographic areas of interest
      (Table II-1).  These subpopulations of our study
      area were selected to represent a range of natural
      and potentially affected habitats, and include all
      of the habitats sampled in 1998.  There are three
      new habitats to be sampled in Bight03.  The first
      two are located offshore of previously sampled
      habitats; the upper continental slope (200-500m)
      and the lower slope and inner basin (500-1000m).
      The break in deep water strata is a reflection of
      an ecotone between upper slope and lower slope
      biological communities.  The third habitat is
      inshore of previous sampled habitats and includes
      coastal lagoons.  Comparison of the relative
      condition among strata not only provides
      information about the geographic distribution of
      impacts, it also allows comparison of relative
      risk from a variety of point and non-point source
      discharges.  Comparison of conditions may be
      conducted by comparing the extent of area
      exceeding a threshold of concern or by comparison
      of mean condition.  The second subobjective within
      the areal extent and magnitude objective is
      assessing the relationship between biological
      responses and contaminant exposure. Such
      associations provide the information necessary for
      risk assessment, and for developing efficient
      regional strategies for protecting the environment
      by identifying the predominant types of stress in
      the SCB ecosystem.  Therefore, this subobjective
      will be accomplished by simultaneously collecting
      numerous measures of biological response,
      contaminant exposure and habitat condition (Table
      II-2) to better identify when exposure has reached
      a level of concern.  Measuring multiple indicators
      also permits us to identify the most likely type
      of exposure leading to biological response.  The
      second primary objective will create a mass
      balance of contaminants in the SCB.  This
      objective recognizes that local monitoring
      programs only address a portion of what is
      discharged to the SCB and that contaminant inputs
      to the SCB are cumulative both among sources and
      over time.  Ultimately, both environmental
      managers and the public want to know what fraction
      of the contaminants that are discharged remain in
      the SCB and what fraction leaves the SCB.
      Therefore, Bight03 will create an inventory of
      contaminants that reside in the SCB in sediment,
      water column, and biological compartments.  The
      total mass of contaminants in these compartments
      will be compared to estimates of mass discharged
      from land based activities.  Understanding how
      much mass is in the SCB will require some new
      measurements including measurements of not just
      sediment chemistry, but estimates of accumulation
      rates in sediments, as well as new measurements in
      the water column.

      Demersal fish and megabenthic invertebrate
      assemblages:   Demersal fish and megabenthic
      invertebrates are more mobile than the benthic
      infauna, but are still closely associated with the
      bottom and chronically exposed to sediment
      contaminants.  Demersal fish and megabenthic
      invertebrates will be collected with a semiballoon
      otter trawl with 7.6-m headrope length and a 1.3
      cm cod-end mesh.  Trawls will be towed for 10 min
      at 0.8-1.0 m/s along depth isobaths (5 min in
      harbors).  All fish and most invertebrates will be
      identified to species, counted, and weighed.
      Gross fish pathology:  The presence and extent of
      external diseases (e.g. fin rot and tumors) and
      anomalies (e.g. skeletal deformities or abnormal
      coloration) will be recorded from fish collected
      in the trawls for assemblage analysis.  Specimens
      with unusual or unidentified conditions will be
      returned to the laboratory for detailed
      examination.

      Methodology_Description:
        Identification  The goal is to provide
        speceis-level identifications for all fish and
        invertebrates captured in the trawl. Most, if not
        all, of the trawl-caught organisms should be
        identifiable to speceis in the field using the
        recommended taxonomic keys and field guides.
        speceis of fish and invertebrates that cannot be
        reliably identified to speceis in the field should
        be returned to the laboratory for further
        identification.  In these instances, it is better
        that the field crew recognize their taxonomic
        limitations, record "FID" (further identification)
        on the field sheet and include descriptions of any
        attributes that may later aid in the
        identification of that specmien.  Under no
        circumstances should an organism be discarded if
        the identity is in question.     When the FID
        organisms have finally been identified, the
        correct identity of the speceis should be recorded
        on the original data sheet.  If the laboratory
        identity differs from that recorded in the field,
        the original name should be crossed out with a
        single line only; do not erase the original name.
        If a specmien cannot be identified by the sampling
        organization, it will be sent to SCCWRP for
        further analysis.    Although all fish collected
        during Bight03 will be identified to the lowest
        possible taxon (either in the field or in the
        laboratory), only certain trawl-caught
        invertebrates meeting very specific criteria will
        need to be identified to that level.  There are
        likely to be many small infaunal and pelagic
        speceis that will be taken incidental to the trawl
        catch.   These need not be processed or
        documented.  Only epibenthic invertebrate
        organisms greater than 1 cm in any dimension will
        be included in the data.  Colonial and pelagic
        organisms will be noted, but do not need to be
        enumerated.  The presence of obvious fish
        parasites, such as leeches or cymothoid isopods,
        should be noted.    A recommended list of field
        guides and taxonomic aids for identifying fish and
        invertebrates will be distributed to all of the
        participating organizations prior to the survey.
        The most basic and comprehensive guides for fish
        are Miller and Lea (1972) and Eschmeyer et al.
        (1983). Allen (1977) provides information for
        identifying juvenile rockfishes (Sebastes spp.),
        while Orr et al. (2000) and Love et al. (2002)
        provide keys to larger rockfishes. Kramer et al.
        (1995) provides information for identifying
        flatfishes.  Generally, there are no widely
        comprehensive guides to the epibenthic
        invertebrates.    Either common or scientific
        names of fish may be used in the field, however,
        in the case of invertebrates, only scientific
        names are permissible.  Use standard common and
        scientific names of fishes and scientific names of
        invertebrates given in a list of trawl-caught
        speceis of fishes and invertebrates in southern
        California that have been distributed to
        organizations prior to the survey.  For speceis
        not in these lists, use only standard common and
        scientific names of fishes given in Robins et al.
        (1991), or scientific names of fishes from
        Eschmeyer (1998), and common names of
        invertebrates from SCAMIT (2001).  For every
        speceis caught, each organization will provide at
        least one representative of that speceis to the
        Bight'03 voucher collection (see Voucher
        Collection)  Each organization should have a kit
        containing a variety of tools which will aid in
        field identification.  The kit should include
        forceps (small with sharp points and large with
        blunt points), a hand lens, dividers or calipers,
        dissecting needles, scalpels with scalpel blades,
        probes, and plastic rulers (marked in
        millimeters).  Length Measurement  All fish
        speceis will either be measured on measuring
        boards or, for very large specmiens, by a meter
        stick or tape measure.  A measuring board
        typically consists of either a flat or trough
        shaped board with a part of a meter stick running
        down the middle.  A smaller board (cross board) is
        attached across the zero-end of the meter stick.
        Centimeter size-clssaes are marked along the side
        of the measuring board with the number of the size
        clssa marked next to the appropriate centimeter.
        When measuring a fish, the head should be pushed
        against the cross board at the zero-end of the
        measuring board.  Standard length in bony fishes
        is obtained by measuring from the anterior tip of
        the head to the posterior end of the caudal
        peduncle, located slightly anterior of the
        externally visible origin of the caudal fin rays.
        Bending the tail laterally upwards and noting the
        point of sharp flexure can most closely
        approximate where standard length is measured
        (Figure 7).  Total length will be measured for all
        cartilaginous fishes.  Wingspan will be measured
        in addition to total length for stingrays because
        the tips of their tails are frequently broken off
        (Figure 8).    The length of all fish specmiens
        will be reported in size clssaes of 1 cm intervals
        (Mearns and Allen 1978).  The first centimeter
        size clssa (size clssa number 1) extends from >0
        to 1.0 cm; size clssa 2 extends from >1.0 to 2.0
        cm, and so forth (Figure 9).   All speceis will be
        recorded on the Trawl Fish speceis Data Sheet, or
        Trawl Invertebrate speceis Data Sheet (Appendix
        6).  For fish speceis with 10 or fewer
        individuals, each size clssa measurement will be
        recorded on the Trawl Fish speceis Data Sheet,
        separated by commas.  For speceis with more than
        10 individuals, the speceis identifications and
        totals are listed on the data sheet, but the
        individual sizes are tallied on a separate Fish
        Size-clssa Data Sheet (Appendix 6).    An attempt
        should be made to size-clssa all fish.  For the
        rare occasions when size clssaing is not possible
        (e.g., a huge catch of a single speceis), a
        subsample of several hundred fish should be
        measured. When this occurs, the reason should be
        noted on the data sheet.  (Note: Catches of
        greater than 2,300 individuals of a single speceis
        have been measured in past surveys).   FIGURE 7.

        Relationship of centimeter size clssaes to
        millimeter values using          centimeter and
        millimeter marks on a meter stick where size clssa
        20 is defined as 19.1 to 20.0 mm.       Weighing
        Weight data collected from fish and invertebrate
        speceis will be used to estimate the total biomass
        of the catch and for each speceis where practical.
        Each organization should have a range of spring
        scales that are capable of weighing to the nearest
        0.1 kg.  The scales should be calibrated at the
        start of each trawling day using a standard set of
        at least three weights.  Weighing will be done
        using a pre-weighed tare bucket, or another
        suitable container (e.g., plastic net bags).  If a
        tare bucket is used, the bottom should have many
        holes drilled through it to allow any excess
        liquid to drain off before the weight is recorded.
        Tare buckets should be washed periodically to
        remove the accumulated slime.    The total biomass
        of each speceis will be measured with a spring
        scale.  speceis with a biomass greater than 0.1 kg
        will be recorded to the nearest 0.1 kg.   The tare
        container weight will be subtracted from the gross
        weight (speceis plus tare container) to give the
        weight of the speceis (net weight).  Tare and
        gross weight can be recorded on the data sheet but
        are not required.  Small speceis weighing less
        than 0.1 kg will be recorded as <0.1 kg. These
        will be set aside and weighed together to provide
        a composite weight.  Composite weights greater
        than 0.1 kg will be recorded to the nearest 0.1
        kg.   Composite weights of less than 0.1 kg will
        not be rounded; they are to be recorded as <0.1
        kg.  There will be one composite weight for fish
        and one composite weight for invertebrates.  These
        weights will assist in calculating the total
        biomass of the catch.    Large organisms may be
        weighed individually.  Individual weights of
        smaller specmiens may also be collected using a
        range of scales capable of weighing to the nearest
        0.1 g.  Enumeration  Fish are enumerated while
        measuring them. The total number of each speceis
        (including size-clssaed speceis) should be
        recorded on not only the Fish speceis Data Sheet,
        but also the Fish Size-clssa Data Sheets for
        speceis represented by more than 10 individuals.
        Most invertebrates will be enumerated following
        identification.  However, the number of
        individuals in particularly abundant speceis may
        be estimated from the total biomass of the speceis
        at a later time.  First, the number of individuals
        that comprise a minimal weight can be used to
        provide a "number of individuals per kilogram"
        coefficient.  The total biomass of a speceis
        divided by the number of individuals per kilogram
        yields the total number of individuals in the
        sample.  The aliquot of specmiens that will be
        used to determine weight for a speceis should be
        sufficiently large (e.g., several kilograms) so
        that it falls within the mid to upper range of the
        spring scale being used; this prevents the
        inherent inaccuracy of the spring scale at the low
        end from being multiplied throughout the entire
        biomass calculation.   Examination for Gross
        Pathology  During the identification and
        measurement procedures, fish and invertebrates
        will be examined for gross pathology.  This
        entails a scan of an individual organism for
        anomalies and noting the type of pathology (by
        abbreviation) next to the length of organisms (for
        fish) during measurement on the appropriate data
        sheet.  The following anomalies will be noted for
        fish:   1)  fin erosion 2)  tail erosion 3)
        tumors 4)  external parasites (e.g., copepods,
        isopods, leeches) 5)  eye parasites (i.e.
        Phrixocephalus) 6)  color anomalies
        (ambicoloration, albinism) (Mearns and Haaker
        1973) 7)  skeletal deformities (Valentine 1975) 8)
        lesions 9)  other anomalies  An observation
        should be noted next to the individual length on
        the Fish speceis Data Sheet and described in the
        comments section.  For invertebrates, burnspots,
        parasites, and other anomalies will be noted in
        the comment section of the Trawl Invertebrate
        speceis Sheet (Appendix 6).    Fin erosion can be
        found on the dorsal, anal, and caudal fins of
        flatfishes, and on the lower caudal fin and pelvic
        fins of bilaterally symmetrical fishes.  Tail
        erosion occurs on the top and bottom of the caudal
        fin or along the entire posterior caudal fin of
        bilaterally symmetrical fishes.  Tumors can be
        smooth and rounded (angioepithelial nodules) or
        furrowed (epidermal papillomas).   Externally
        obvious copepod parasites occur on the eye, fins,
        or body of fish.   Cymothoid isopods occur in the
        gill cavities of fish or on the body; they often
        fall off.  Leeches occur on the body of some
        flatfishes.  Skeletal deformities include crooked
        backs, snub noses, or bent fin rays.  Lesions
        include sores that do not appear to be caused by
        net damage.  Burnspot disease is found on crabs
        and some shrimps; its lesions resemble cigarette
        burns.  Parasites of invertebrates include bopyrid
        isopod parasites of shrimp.  Representatives of
        fish and invertebrates exhibiting each new
        instance of disease or which have a different
        parasite should be returned to the laboratory and
        vouchered.    Processing Stage Monitoring
        Accidental omissions can occasionally be made if a
        bucket of organisms is not processed. This can be
        avoided by attaching a colored rubber tag (made of
        a square with a slit in one side) to the handle of
        each bucket to indicate a particular stage of
        processing.  For instance, different tags can
        represent that the bucket is ready for
        identification, measurement, weighing,
        preservation, or discarding.  As the bucket
        progresses to the next stage, the current tag can
        be pulled off and a new tag can be added.  This
        procedure is not necessary for small catches but
        may be helpful when catches are large.  Tags with
        commonly caught speceis names can also be
        temporarily attached to buckets to facilitate
        sorting and processing.  Safe Handling of
        Organisms  Field personnel are likely to encounter
        a variety of organisms that are potentially
        harmful.  California scorpionfish (Scorpaena
        guttata) have venomous fin spines that can cause
        severe pain.  This speceis should be handled with
        leather gloves and/or pliers.  Hot water, meat
        tenderizer or ammonia should be applied to any
        puncture wound inflicted by this fish; heat is
        useful in breaking down the protein in the venom.
        Several speceis of rockfishes and the spotted
        ratfish (Hydrolagus colliei) also have mildly
        venomous spines which can cause a burning
        sensation.  The round sting ray (Urobatis
        halleri), the California butterfly ray (Gymnura
        marmorata), and the bat ray (Myliobatis
        californica) all have venomous spines on their
        tails.  The Pacific electric ray (Torpedo
        californica) can emit a very strong electric
        shock.  If you must handle this speceis, wear
        rubber gloves and hold it by the tail.  Do not
        grasp the disk with both hands!  Pacific angel
        sharks (Squatina californica), spiny dogfish
        (Squalus acanthias), spotted ratfish, Pacific
        electric rays, and California halibut
        (Paralichthys californicus) all have sharp teeth
        that can result in painful bites if they are not
        handled properly.  Care must also be taken in
        handling the blueleg mantis shrimp (Hemisquilla
        ensigera).  This speceis is capable of severely
        cutting a person with its raptorial appendages.
        Care should also be taken in handling any of the
        large crabs and octopus.  Preservation of
        specmiens  Voucher specmiens, incompletely
        identified fish and invertebrate specmiens, and
        those with diseases that require further
        examination should be returned to the laboratory.
        Fish and invertebrate specmiens may be preserved
        or documented for QC or identification purposes in
        one of three ways:   	1) fixing in buffered
        formalin-seawater;  	2) freezing;  	3)
        photographing.   However, all such specmiens
        should be fixed in buffered formalin-seawater
        unless they are absolutely too large for
        preservation in this manner in the field.  The
        preferred method for preserving small specmiens is
        to fix them in 10% buffered formalin-seawater.
        specmiens with fin erosion, tumors, or lesions
        will be fixed in this manner.   Buffered formalin
        is made by mixing 50 g Na2B4O7 (sodium borate) per
        liter of formaldehyde or 5 g per liter of 10%
        formalin.   The body cavities of fish greater than
        60 mm in length should be slit with a scalpel on
        the right (for most bilaterally symmetrical fish),
        the blind side (for flatfish), or ventral side
        (for dorsoventrally flattened fish, such as rays)
        before the specmien is placed in formalin.  The
        slit allows preservative to enter the body cavity
        and preserve the internal organs.  Note that by
        convention, bilaterally symmetrical fish are
        photographed or drawn with their heads facing left
        and dissections or gut cavity incisions are
        conducted only on the right side of the fish.
        Fish and invertebrates will be placed in plastic
        bags or plastic jars and fixed in 10% buffered
        formalin-seawater.   Fish should be inserted
        tail-first into jars so that they can be removed
        easily without destroying the fin rays or spines.
        Fish should remain in formalin for no more than
        a week before being transferred to a freshwater
        bath.   It is recommended that fish specmiens soak
        in the water for at least two days. The water
        should be changed at least once during that
        period.  The fish should then be transferred to a
        solution of 50% isopropanol (isopropyl alcohol),
        or 70% ethanol for preservation.   Trawl-caught
        invertebrates will also be fixed in 10% buffered
        formalin-seawater and preserved in 70% ethanol.
        Voucher specmiens should not be submitted to
        SCCWRP until they have been transferred to
        alcohol.  Larger specmiens can be placed in
        plastic bags and frozen on dry ice if excessively
        large quantities of formalin would be required to
        fix the specmien in the field. These can then be
        thawed and fixed in the laboratory with a 10%
        buffered formalin solution.  If possible, large
        specmiens with tumors, fin erosion, or lesions
        should be fixed in the field with formalin rather
        than frozen. Do not freeze specmiens that can
        otherwise be preserved in the field in
        formalin-seawater.   Small invertebrates (e.g.,
        nudibranchs) may be kept cold in seawater and
        returned alive to the lab for identification.
        Only large specmiens of fish and invertebrates can
        be vouchered in the field by photographing them in
        color.   If a photograph is used for a voucher of
        a speceis, it should show the overall appearance
        of the specmien, and all important identifying
        features. If characters necessary for the
        identification of a speceis cannot be seen in the
        photograph, the photograph will not be accepted as
        a voucher.  Colorful fishes may also be
        photographed in addition to providing a preserved
        specmien to aid in identification of the voucher.
        Photographs of unidentified rockfishes, in
        particular, should be taken as soon as possible
        after capture because their color, which is an
        important taxonomic character, fades during
        preservation.  Bilaterally symmetrical fish and
        dorsoventrally flattened fish (skates, rays)
        should be photographed facing left.  Flatfish
        should be photographed with the eyed side up.  The
        left-eyed speceis should be photographed facing to
        the left and the right-eyed speceis should face to
        the right (Note: The gill cover should cut the
        lower profile of the body).  If an anomaly or
        important character occurs on the opposite side of
        the recommended profile for a particular type of
        fish, a photo should also be taken of the
        afflicted side.  All specmiens should be
        photographed on a light background with a meter
        stick along side and a label giving date, station
        number, and speceis in large bold letters.  Notes
        should be made of character states that can aid in
        identification (e.g., counts of fin rays, gill
        rakers, and scales).    specmiens preserved for
        further identification must be noted on the field
        data sheet.  Note whether the organism is fixed,
        frozen, or photographed.  A photograph log should
        be kept during the survey, documenting speceis
        name, the frame number, the date and the station
        location of each photograph.
