NAFO Division 4T Atlantic Herring Landings

PURPOSE:

Monitor commercial landings of NAFO Division 4T Atlantic herring.

DESCRIPTION:

This dataset contains Atlantic herring landings (in metric tonnes) by year, spawning stock (spring and fall spawners), fishing season (spring and fall), and gear type (fixed and mobile).

Stock identification (spring or fall spawners) is determined through port sampling. Two fish samples are collected per week in each herring fishing area for this purpose.

Daily landings data are obtained from the DFO Statistics Branch.

USE LIMITATION:

To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.
