Total catches and estimated revenue by species for communities-at-sea based on landings reported on Vessel Trip Reports (VTRs). Landings data were compiled from VTRs and summed over the available years of data for each community.
The following methods are excerpted from Rogers et al. (in press):
Landings data were compiled from vessel trip reports and summed over the available years of data for each community. Price information was extracted from NOAA Fisheries, Fisheries Statistics Division (https://www.st.nmfs.noaa.gov/st1/commercial/landings/annual_landings.html). We used the average price per lb by species, adjusted for inflation (real 2014 prices in US$), over the period for which we had community-level data. State-level prices were used when available, and otherwise regional prices were used.
