Science Response 2016/009

Update of indicators of the stock status of the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence (3Pn, 4RS) Cod in 2015

Context

The stock assessment of Cod (Gadus morhua) in the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence (3Pn, 4RS) is conducted every two years, with the most recent assessment completed in February 2015. In interim years, a summary review of the resource's main indicators is made in order to determine whether major changes in the stock status would warrant more in-depth study prior to the planned assessment in the winter of 2017. This update was prepared to provide Fisheries Management with an overview of the most recent stock status.

This Science Response Report results from the Regional Science Response Process from November 23, 2015 on the Stock Status Update of Cod in 3Pn4RS.
