I’m attending the small pelagic fishes workshop, part of the DFO Technical Expertise in Stock Assessment Workshop Series, November 21-23 in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada.
There are two main focus areas for the workshop:
Day 1 – will focus on challenges in existing stock assessments/management strategy evaluations (MSEs) for small pelagics (i.e., a lack of a stock recruitment relationship) and potential solutions.
Day 2 – will focus on (mostly acoustic) survey design(s) from DFO surveys and how it is used for stock assessment.
Day 3 – A synopsis on bridges/barriers to small pelagic monitoring and stock assessment, with potential solutions proposed.
