Biology and Management of Sablefish, 'Anoplopoma fimbria'. Papers from theInternational Symposium on the Biology and Management of Sablefish. Held in Seattle, Washington on April 13-15, 1993

摘要

At its June 1990 annual meeting, the Technical Subcommittee (TSC) of the Canada-U.S. Groundfish Committee recommended that scientists and managers working on sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, issues convene to present and discuss the results of their recent research. Thorough knowledge of the biology and population dynamics of this species is essential for its effective management; especially considering its commercial importance. TSC representatatives from both countries recognized that a great deal of active research as been conducted of this species. The symposium was organized into five sessions: Early Life History, Juvenile and Adult Biology, Stock Delineation and Movement, Stock Assessment, and Management. The agenda allowed sufficient time for open discussion following each session. The active interested participation by all symposium attendees led to thought-provoking discussions which were often as valuable as the presentations. A list of all participants is appended to this volume.
