An acoustic survey was carried out by two research vessels in
July 1984 to assess the distribution and abundance of 0-group
gadoids.
The 0-groups were distributed in scattering layers by night and
in schools by day. Observed vertical migrations, most predominant
with Norway pout, indicated fish ascending towards the
surface by night. Rather little mixing between 0-group and
demersal fish were observed during daytime.
