Abstract
⺠Simulation modeling of a trawl-acoustic sampling design was conducted. ⺠Survey efficiency was measured to evaluate precision of biomass estimates. ⺠High efficiencies depended upon a strong correlation between trawl and acoustic data. ⺠The results motivate further refinement of acoustic backscatter and trawl catch.
