Second year results of surveys directed at cod in NAFO division 3Ps / John McClintock. : Fs70-1/1999-34E-PDF

To enhance the fisheries research database in NAFO Division 3Ps, the Groundfish Enterprise Allocation Council (GEAC) has funded surveys during fall of 1997 and fall 1998 directed at cod. The continuing intent is to create a series of annual fall surveys in 3Ps to complement current resource assessment activities carried out by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO). This is the second such GEAC survey in 3Ps following on the 1997 survey (CSAS Research Document 99/20). One trip to perform the 1998 survey was carried out from 30 November to 11 December 1998. During the trip, set details and length frequencies were logged in the DFO FSS system and otoliths were collected for subsequent aging. Catch statistics, length and age distribution, and stratified analysis estimates of cod abundance and biomass, including age distribution estimates are presented.
