1979 assessment of American plaice (Hippoglossoides platessoides F.) in NAFO division 4T / by Kaija Metuzals. : Fs70-8/80-41E-PDF

"Commercial catches for 1979 were analyzed. Catch per unit of effort for Danish seiners (tonnage class 0-50 an 50-150 respectively) for 1979 indicate an increase in stock abundance since 1977. Research data has been collected since 1970, and the abundance index for 1979 also indicates an increase since 1976. Despite high discard rates, total landings for 1979 were higher than the past two years. All indices show evidence of an increase in plaice stock biomass"--Abstract.
