Description

SC DNR will utilize fourier-transformed near infrared spectroscopy (FT-nirs) to obtain age estimates from southeast reef fish survey (serfs) collected ageing structures in a timelier and more efficient manner for four species (black sea bass, GAG, red snapper, scamp), while ensuring consistency with other regional labs using similar methods. Additionally, they will use stable isotopes from eye lenses, collected during routine serfs sampling, to characterize movement, diet change, and trophic niche over the lifetime of each of the four species. Finally, SC DNR will conduct diet analysis from fish collected during routine marine resources monitoring assessment and prediction/southeast area monitoring and assessment program-south atlantic (marmap/seamap-SA) sampling, both visually and if necessary, with DNA barcoding to identify partially digested prey organisms, to characterize ecosystem processes of each species, which are important factors for ecosystem-based fishery management (ebfm
