Northern (NAFO Divs. 2J3KL) cod stock update . : Fs70-7/2015-018E-PDF
A conservation limit reference point (LRP) was established for Northern cod in 2010 (DFO 2010) and is defined as the average spawning stock biomass (SSB) during the 1980s. This reference point defines the boundary between the critical and cautious zones within the Precautionary Approach (PA) framework (DFO 2009) and defines the stock level below which serious harm is occurring. The most recent full assessment (March, 2013) concluded that the spawning stock biomass (SSB) in 2012 was 15% of the LRP. A subsequent stock update (March 2014) with additional data from 2013 indicated the three-year average (2011-13) SSB at that time was 18% of the LRP; at these levels the stock is considered to have suffered serious harm and the ability to produce good recruitment is seriously impaired. The scientific advice from the most recent full assessment (DFO 2013) and subsequent stock update (DFO 2014) stated that removals should be kept low to promote stock growth.
