Atlantic argentine (Argentina silus Ascanius) : stock status on the Scotian Shelf and a discussion of relationships with Georges Bank argentine / by R.G. Halliday and C. Dale.: Fs70-8/85-44E-PDF

"Research vessel biomass estimates of Argentina silus in Div. 4VWX declined in 1984 to about half the level of '83. This 1984 level was similar to that of 1977-81. Increased abundance since extension of jurisdiction resulted from recruitment of several good year-classes to the surveyed population, particularly that of 1980. The abrupt decrease in estimated biomass in 1984 is unlikely to be due to mortality and may reflect changes in availability to surveys with age (size)"--Abstract.
