Other NMFS and NOS facilities include Galveston, TX; Panama City, FL; St. Petersburg, FL; Miami, FL; Charleston, SC; Beaufort, NC; and Oxford, MD. Survey cruises cover the southeastern region from New England through Texas, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands as well as other nations (Mexico, Central America, and Caribbean Islands nations). Biological and environmental sampling from large vessels in the open ocean is performed. This includes observation of fishing activity engaged in commercial and recreational as well as field observations of marine mammals and turtles. Estuarine and near-shore biological and environmental sampling is conducted throughout the southeast region using small boats. The SEFSC provides gear research, development, and technology transfer services, which may sometimes involve work anywhere in the world.
