SUMMARY

Abundance indices by age group of albacore (Thunnus alalunga) caught by Spanish bait boat fleet in north east Atlantic were estimated using catch rate data from 1195 trips collected over the period 1981-1999. Standarized CPUEs for age groups 1 to 4 were estimated through the General Linear Modeling...

Description
Summary:Abundance indices by age group of albacore (Thunnus alalunga) caught by Spanish bait boat fleet in north east Atlantic were estimated using catch rate data from 1195 trips collected over the period 1981-1999. Standarized CPUEs for age groups 1 to 4 were estimated through the General Linear Modeling approach by applying the log-normal error distribution model.
