    Author : Viktor Hedlund; [2017]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Atlantic cod is one of the world´s most important commercial fish stocks and is dependent on fishing regulations for its wellbeing and survival. An important part in fisheries management is information of the stock distribution. This is needed to not cause overestimations that results in heavy overfishing. READ MORE
