• Evaluation of sampling strategies for age determination of cod (Gadus morhua) sampled at the North Sea International Bottom Trawl Survey 

      Jourdain, Natoya; Breivik, Olav Nikolai; Fuglebakk, Edvin; Aanes, Sondre; Vølstad, Jon Helge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The North Sea cod stock assessment is based on indices of abundance-at-age from fishery-independent bottom trawl surveys. The age structure of the catch is estimated by sampling fish for otoliths collection in a length-stratified ...

      The REDUS project (2016-2020) has been a strategic project at the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) aimed at quantifying and reducing the uncertainty in data-rich and age-structured stock assessments (e.g., cod, herring, ...
    • Maturation in the Barents Sea capelin – Contrasting length- and gonad-based metrics 

      Jourdain, Natoya; Fuglebakk, Edvin; Subbey, Samuel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      It is assumed that maturation in the Barents Sea capelin is length-dependent, and that fish of at least 14 cm will potentially spawn. Current assessment and management models for the stock are based on this assumption of ...
