Project Description
SEDAR 80 will be an Operational Assessment and addresses the stocks of Caribbean Queen Triggerfish. Three Topical Working Groups (TWG) will be convened to discuss 1) Life History, 2) Indices of Abundance, and 3) Effects of Fishery Regulations and the Economy on catchability, retention, and fishing behavior/selectivity. The TWGs will meet via webinar between February 2021 and May 2022. The assessment will be reviewed by the Caribbean Fishery Management Council’s SSC in Summer 2022 . 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.
