attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String Five-minute tows were made at the speed of 3.0 knots, scope of 2:1, and with a commercial-style hydraulic dredge equipped with a 13-foot-wide cutting blade and a surface- supplied manifold positioned on the forward end of the dredge. Survey stations were randomly selected to provide unbiased abundance measurements. Therefore, these stations were not alwayson or near known locations of clam concentrations.
