Funded Activity Summary

Objectives:
1. Survey the structure and broad definitions of habitat types and associated fish assemblages in the SEF shelf ecosystem
2. Assess the selectivity of different commercial gear types for quota species in different habitats
3. Assess the relative abundance, age composition, distribution and vulnerability to fishing gear of key commercial species, primarily redfish and warehous
4. Evaluate the importance of hard ground as a refuge for commercial fish species
5. Define the major trophic linkages of SEF quota species by habitat type and identify the relative importance of benthic, pelagic and inshore sources of production to quota fish species
6. Develop hierarchical models based on the fishery and on the fishery ecology
