Assessment of Northumberland Strait scallop stocks / by G.S. Jamieson, N.B. Witherspoon, and M.J. Lundy. : Fs70-8/80-73E-PDF

"Stock assessments in each of the three regions of Northumberland Strait (east, central and west) are presented. Assessments are based both on resource surveys, which determine relative age class frequencies and densities, and CPUE data as obtained from log books, which were introduced in this fishery for the first time in 1979. Significant regional differences in scallop abundance were evident, with average density greatest in the eastern Strait and progressively decreasing in the central and western Strait respectively"--Abstract.
