Caption title. "April 2018." Includes bibliographical references. "The need to reduce the fishing mortality experienced by Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) on the Canadian portion of Georges Bank has led to efforts by the offshore Scallop fishery to reduce Cod bycatch. Along with active avoidance protocols adopted by the offshore scallop fleet, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has implemented area/time closures from early February to the end of March since 2005. This document provides information on the spatial distribution of Cod abundance on eastern Georges Bank during the spawning period based upon the DFO Winter Georges Bank Research Vessel (RV) Survey and its overlap with scallop catches on the Canadian portion of Georges Bank”--Context, p.
