Groundfish stock assessments for the west coast of Canada in 1988 and recommended yield options for 1989 / by J. Fargo and A.V. Tyler (editors). : Fs97-6/1646E-PDF

"Stock assessments and yield options are developed for the Pacific coast of Canada for the following species: lingcod, Pacific cod, petrale sole, Dover sole, rock sole, English sole, arrowtooth flounder, sablefish, Pacific hake, spiny dogfish, walleye pollock, Pacific ocean perch, yellowmouth rockfish, rougheye rockfish, redstripe rockfish, silvergray rockfish, yellowtail rockfish, canary rockfish, quillback rockfish, copper rockfish, and yelloweye rockfish. The yield options are recommendations to the fishery managers of the Offshore Division of the Fisheries Branch on catch limitations and other fishery management procedures. Biological considerations only, rather than economic factors, are addressed in this document. The yield options are quantitative and are based on a series of appropriate mathematical methods, e.g. virtual population analysis, dynamic pool analysis, and Fournier stock-reconstruction procedures. Alternative options address the possibility of the fishery managers' considering high risk and low risk yields in relation to a stock's potential to produce. Other options, particularly for rockfish species, provide a selection of alternatives for managers to consider in regard to whether a stock should be re-built, maintained at status quo, or decreased through non-sustainable catches for present economic emergencies"--Abstract, page iv.
