Northeast Fisheries Science Center Reference Documents

This series is a secondary scientific series designed to assure the long-term documentation and to enable the timely transmission of research results by Center and/or non-Center researchers, where such results bear upon the research mission of the Center (see the outside back cover for the mission statement). These documents receive internal scientific review, and most receive copy editing. The National Marine Fisheries Service does not endorse any proprietary material, process, or product mentioned in these documents.

If you do not have Internet access, you may obtain a paper copy of a document by contacting the senior Center author of the desired document. Refer to the title page of the document for the senior Center author’s name and mailing address. If there is no Center author, or if there is corporate (i.e., non-individualized) authorship, then contact the Center’s Woods Hole Labora-tory Library (166 Water St., Woods Hole, MA 02543-1026).

Information Quality Act Compliance: In accordance with section 515 of Public Law 106-554, the Northeast Fisheries Science Center completed both technical and policy reviews for this report. These predissemination reviews are on file at the NEFSC Editorial Office.

Procedures for Issuing Manuscripts in the

Northeast Fisheries Science Center Reference Document (CRD) Series

Clearance All manuscripts submitted for issuance as CRDs

must have cleared the NEFSC’s manuscript/abstract/ webpage review process. If any author is not a federal employee, he/she will be required to sign an “NEFSC Release-of-Copyright Form.” If your manuscript includes material from another work which has been copyrighted, then you will need to work with the NEFSC’s Editorial Office to arrange for permission to use that material by securing release signatures on the “NEFSC Use-of-Copyrighted-Work Permission Form.”

For more information, NEFSC authors should see the NEFSC’s online publication policy manual, “Manu-script/abstract/webpage preparation, review, and dis-semination: NEFSC author’s guide to policy, process, and procedure,” located in the Publications/Manuscript Review section of the NEFSC intranet page.

Organization Manuscripts must have an abstract and table of

contents, and (if applicable) lists of figures and tables. As much as possible, use traditional scientific manu-script organization for sections: “Introduction,” “Study Area” and/or ”Experimental Apparatus,” “Methods,” “Results,” “Discussion,” “Conclusions,” “Acknowl-edgments,” and “Literature/References Cited.”

Style The CRD series is obligated to conform with the

style contained in the current edition of the United States Government Printing Office Style Manual. That style manual is silent on many aspects of scientific manuscripts. The CRD series relies more on the CSE Style Manual. Manuscripts should be prepared to conform with these style manuals.

The CRD series uses the American Fisheries Soci-ety’s guides to names of fishes, mollusks, and decapod

crustaceans, the Society for Marine Mammalogy’s guide to names of marine mammals, the Biosciences Information Service’s guide to serial title abbreviations, and the ISO’s (International Standardization Organiza-tion) guide to statistical terms.

For in-text citation, use the name-date system. A special effort should be made to ensure that all neces-sary bibliographic information is included in the list of cited works. Personal communications must include date, full name, and full mailing address of the con-tact.

Preparation Once your document has cleared the review pro-

cess, the Editorial Office will contact you with publica-tion needs – for example, revised text (if necessary) and separate digital figures and tables if they are embedded in the document. Materials may be submitted to the Editorial Office as email attachments or intranet down-loads. Text files should be in Microsoft Word, tables may be in Word or Excel, and graphics files may be in a variety of formats (JPG, GIF, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).

Production and Distribution The Editorial Office will perform a copy-edit of

the document and may request further revisions. The Editorial Office will develop the inside and outside front covers, the inside and outside back covers, and the title and bibliographic control pages of the docu-ment.

Once the CRD is ready, the Editorial Office will contact you to review it and submit corrections or changes before the document is posted online.

A number of organizations and individuals in the Northeast Region will be notified by e-mail of the availability of the document online.

Publications and Reports of the

Northeast Fisheries Science Center The mission of NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is “stewardship of living marine resources for the benefit of the nation through their science-based conservation and management and promotion of the health of their environment.” As the research arm of the NMFS’s Northeast Region, the Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) supports the NMFS mission by “conducting ecosystem-based research and assess-ments of living marine resources, with a focus on the Northeast Shelf, to promote the recovery and long-term sustainability of these resources and to generate social and economic opportunities and benefits from their use.” Results of NEFSC research are largely reported in primary scientific media (e.g., anonymously-peer-reviewed scientific journals). However, to assist itself in providing data, information, and advice to its constituents, the NEFSC occasionally releases its results in its own media. Currently, there are three such media:

NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS-NE -- This series is issued irregularly. The series typically includes: data reports of long-term field or lab studies of important species or habitats; synthesis reports for important species or habitats; annual reports of overall assessment or monitoring programs; manuals describing program-wide surveying or experimental techniques; literature surveys of important species or habitat topics; proceedings and collected papers of scientific meetings; and indexed and/or annotated bibliographies. All issues receive internal scientific review and most issues receive technical and copy editing.

Northeast Fisheries Science Center Reference Document -- This series is issued irregularly. The series typically includes: data reports on field and lab studies; progress reports on experiments, monitoring, and assessments; background papers for, collected abstracts of, and/or summary reports of scientific meetings; and simple bibliographies. Issues receive internal scientific review and most issues receive copy editing.

Resource Survey Report (formerly Fishermen’s Report) -- This information report is a regularly-issued, quick-turnaround report on the distribution and relative abundance of selected living marine resources as derived from each of the NEFSC’s periodic research ves-sel surveys of the Northeast’s continental shelf. This report undergoes internal review, but receives no technical or copy editing.

TO OBTAIN A COPY of a NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS-NE or a Northeast Fisheries Science Center Reference Document, either contact the NEFSC Editorial Office (166 Water St., Woods Hole, MA 02543-1026; 508-495-2350) or consult the NEFSC webpage on “Reports and Publications” (http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/nefsc/publications/). To access Resource Survey Report, consult the Ecosystem Surveys Branch webpage (http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/femad/ecosurvey/mainpage/).
