23103 AFSC/REFM: Flatfish maturity near Kodiak, 2012-2013 Data Set Published / External 22252 Life History Project Completed The dataset is comprised of individual fish records from collections made during port sampling at Kodiak Alaska for the purpose of updating maturity estimates for selected GOA flatfish. The collections were made by an Alaska Fisheries Databank funded sampler. Sample preparation, ageing and histological determination of maturity state were completed by AFSC staff. Provide updated estimates of female maturity for selected GOA flatfish species.
