Proceedings of the Zonal Peer Review of the Updated Assessment of Northern Wolffish, Spotted Wolffish, and Atlantic Wolffish Related to Population Status, Life History, and Habitat; January 17–18, 2023
Chairpersons: James Meade and Erika Parrill
Editor: Roanne Collins
Summary
This Proceedings Report summarizes relevant discussions, recommendations, and conclusions from the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) Zonal Peer Review to provide an updated assessment of Northern Wolffish, Spotted Wolffish, and Atlantic Wolffish through analyses of the most recent data on population status, life history, habitat use, and interactions with commercial fisheries.
The hybrid meeting was held January 17–18, 2023 with participants attending in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) and virtually via Microsoft Teams.
The science advice from this process will inform the Aquatic Ecosystem Branch’s activities and support the Species At Risk (SAR) Program’s development of the five-year progress report (2018–23) on the status of the species and progress on meeting the objectives in the Recovery Strategy and Management Plan for Wolffish.
The conclusions and advice resulting from this meeting will be provided in the form of a Science Advisory Report (SAR) and a supporting Research Document (RES), to be available on the CSAS website.
