Abstract
The main objectives of the study are to estimate distribution, relative abundance and recruitment of surf clams along the Delmarva Peninsula and in areas of intense harvesting off the Virginia coast. The project is a joint undertaking by the National :Larine Fisheries Service (NM.FS), and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS). Herein-after it is associated with the latter Institution to avoid confusion with an NMFS surf clam cruise in Virginia and Nor h Carolina coastal waters in Augus t, 1974.
