The survey was conducted 15-31 March (Marmot Bay, 15-16 March; Shelikof Strait 17-23 March; Chirikof shelf break, 23-24 March), starting and ending in Kodiak, Alaska. The survey was conducted aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Dyson, a 64 meter stern trawler equipped with acoustic and oceanographic instrumentation. The primary instrument for the survey was a Simrad EK60 split-beam echosounder system utilizing five frequencies (18, 38, 70, 120, and 200 kHz).
