Project Description
SEDAR 45 was an Assessment following a Standard approach that addressed the stock of Gulf of Mexico Vermilion Snapper. A workshop to address new data and assessment issues was held November 17-19, 2015 in Miami, Florida. The assessment was reviewed by the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council’s SSC at its March 2016 meeting. For more information, please contact the SEDAR Coordinator for this project, Julie A.

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.
