A data synopsis for British Columbia groundfish : 2023 data update / Sean C. Anderson, Jillian C. Dunic, Elise A. Keppel, and Andrew M. Edwards.: Fs97-6/3641E-PDF

"The combination of fishery-dependent data, such as catch and effort, and fishery-independent survey data, such as biomass indices and age compositions, forms the backbone of most fisheries stock assessments. For British Columbia groundfish, vast quantities of such data are collected. However, the Fisheries and Oceans Canada Pacific groundfish section lacks the capacity to conduct formal stock assessments for most stocks annually, and therefore, much of these data are not summarized to represent the nature of the data holdings. Here, we update a reproducible report that gives a snapshot of population and fishing trends, growth and maturity patterns, as well as data availability, for 116 groundfish species in British Columbia. This update includes data up to 2023"--Abstract, page vii.
