* » Abstract |
The Northern Shrimp Survey was initiated in 1983 by the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) and monitors the relative abundance (number of shrimp), biomass (weight of shrimp), and composition of the northern shrimp stock throughout the Gulf of Maine. The data give an understanding of year class strength and sex stage and maturity of shrimp in the population. The survey focuses its efforts in offshore waters (in depths greater than 50 fathoms) and is timed to sample both males and females during the summer when they are expected to be offshore. The data it collects forms the basis of the annual northern shrimp assessment, which in turn, is used by fishery managers from Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts to set each year’s fishing regulations. |
* Purpose |
The northern shrimp survey is designed to provide data required for annual stock assessments and data is also used in skate and white hake assessments. |
Notes |
The survey was designed to replace the State of Maine Shrimp Survey, which had been conducted since the mid-60s, (1967-1983). The shrimp survey data have been used in skate and white hake stock assessments. |
