1979 performance of commercial sampling for east coast Canadian fisheries / by D. Rivard, S. Stevenson and K. Zwanenburg. : Fs70-8/80-70E-PDF

"This paper presents a review of the 1979 performance of commercial catch sampling for east coast Canadian fisheries. The review indicates that squid, certain shrimp stocks and a few groundfish and pelagic stocks do not meet the ICNAF minimum sampling requirement - one sample for each 1,000 tons caught of each species per division, quarter and gear - for all of their gear-categories in all quarters. For many groundfish and pelagic stocks, sampling efforts are not distributed over gear-types and over time so as to generate representative samples of the commercial catch. The paper also comments on the importance of commercial catch sampling data for the estimation of input parameters for analytical assessment"--Abstract.
