Project Description
SEDAR 68 addressed the stock assessment for Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Scamp. Scamp Stock ID will be resolved prior to the start of the SEDAR 68 Data Workshop through a series of Stock ID webinars. The Data Workshop was to be held March 2020 due was cancelled due to COVID-19 concerns. The Data and Assessment Process were a series of webinars; and the Review Workshop was held via webinar August 30 – September 3, 2021.
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.

SEDAR 68 Scamp Data Process
The SEDAR 68 Data Workshop was originally scheduled for March 16-20, 2020. Due to concerns over travel and COVID-19, the in-person workshop was cancelled. Instead, a series of plenary webinars wasas held to review the data recommendations provided by the individual working groups. Those webinars were held betweenApril and September 2020.
