Abstract

The National Fish Populations Database (NFPD): TraC Fish Counts for all Species for all Estuaries and all years. This is for Approval for Access product AfA347. NFPD consists of information collected from fisheries monitoring work on rivers, lakes and transitional and coastal waters (TraC). This monitoring work is undertaken by the Environment Agency. This particular dataset reports fish counts and log abundance data (where applicable) for ALL Species (including hybrids) caught on TraC surveys for all estuaries and all years. Site and survey information and surveys where zero fish were recorded are also included. Note: The initial version of this dataset (published February 2016) did not contain surveys where zero fish were recorded.
