UCSB SONGS Mitigation Monitoring: Reef Survey - Fish Fecundity, Feeding, and Somatic Growth

These data describe annual estimates of the fecundity, gut fullness, and somatic growth of five fish species at three subtidal reefs collected as part of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) Mitigation Monitoring Program. Data collection began in 2009 at an artificial reef (Wheeler North Reef in Orange County, CA) and two natural reference reefs (San Mateo Kelp in Orange County, CA and Barn Kelp in San Diego County, CA). Fish were collected annually at each reef between May and October.
