In Work
The Highly Migratory Species Branch conducts stock assessments and related research on Atlantic highly migratory species (HMS) to enable their sustainable management. The responsibilities of the Branch include: tunas, swordfish and other billfish, king mackerel, sharks, pelagic fishery bycatch and bycatch mitigation.
We actively participate in research and stock assessment activities conducted under the auspices of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) and lead the United States scientific delegation to meetings of ICCAT's Standing Committee on Research and Statistics. The HMS Branch is organized into two groups: HMS Fisheries Assessment and HMS Biology.
