FMS ad hoc committee: Assessment of Fish Aging Techniques
Tasks:
- Survey state conservation agencies (brief survey format) on aging
structures currently used.
- Develop a literature review/white paper
on fish aging techniques, stressing precision and accuracy (i.e.,
validation).
- Develop recommendations for fish aging techniques.
At this time, we envision a final product that would be published in
Fisheries.
