Data from: Characterization of the abiotic drivers of abundance of nearshore Arctic fishes

Fish are critical ecologically and socioeconomically for subsistence
economies in the Arctic, an ecosystem undergoing unprecedented
environmental change. Our understanding of the responses of nearshore
Arctic fishes to environmental change is inadequate because of limited
research on the physicochemical drivers of abundance occurring at a fine
scale. Here, high-frequency in-situ measurements of pH, temperature,
salinity, and dissolved oxygen were paired with daily fish catches in
nearshore Alaskan waters of the Beaufort Sea. This dataset
includes hourly measurements of pH, temperature, salinity, and dissolved
oxygen, which were collected and calibrated according to best practices in
chemical oceanography, and daily catch-per-unit-effort data for
18 nearshore Arctic fish species paired with daily averaged oceanographic
data.
