Project Description
SEDAR 100 Assessment will address the stock assessment for Gulf Gray Triggerfish. The process will begin in June 2025 with Data Scoping Webinar, followed by a Data Workshop to be held in August 2025 and a Review Workshop to be held in February 2027. The assessment should be completed April 2027. For more information, please contact the SEDAR Coordinator for this project, Julie A. Neer: julie.neer@safmc.net
NOTE: SEDAR Working papers document the methods, datasets, and preliminary analyses that are under consideration at the various workshops and therefore do not necessarily represent final consensus opinions of workshop participants. Working paper findings and methods may change following workshop review. Working papers should not be cited without author permission.

Workshop Presentations
SEDAR 100 Gulf Gray Triggerfish Assessment Process
The Assessment phase for SEDAR 100 Gulf Gray Triggerfish will be conducted internally by the SEFSC. The process will include a pre-decisional presentation to the Gulf Council SSC to provide an opportunity for feedback prior to finalizing the assessment.
