Acoustic optical survey data for snapper survey in shark bay July 2020

Dataset to accompany Scoulding et al. 2023. Estimating abundance of fish associated with structured habitats by combining<strong> </strong>acoustics and optics. Journal of Applied Ecology. The dataset includes: 1. Acoustic integration outputs from Echoview 2. Snapper lengths from RUV deployments 3. Snapper lengths from commercial catch 4. Fish species length-weight relationships 5. Habitat validation determined from camera deployments 6. Proportions of fish species determined per RUV deployment Raw data files (acoustic and optics) are too large for inclusion in this repository but can be provided on request. The Python code used to analysis the data is being packaged and will be added to the repository once complete.
