Title: Bottom trawl survey: count data

Summary:
Trawl survey taxon count data for bottom fish and invertebrates at an offshore sand borrow site in offshore New Jersey. 5 seasonal surveys were conducted over 3 years, with 4 days of collections each of within survey. Trawls were randomized over 7 cluster areas.
