SUMMARY

This document presents the results of applying two different methods to estimate catch-at-age for North Atlantic albacore (Thunnus alalunga). The Spanish albacore surface fishery size frequency data from 2003 to 2005 have been analyzed by means of MULTIFAN and age-length-keys (ALKs) have been derive...

Description
Summary:This document presents the results of applying two different methods to estimate catch-at-age for North Atlantic albacore (Thunnus alalunga). The Spanish albacore surface fishery size frequency data from 2003 to 2005 have been analyzed by means of MULTIFAN and age-length-keys (ALKs) have been derived from readings of sections obtained from sampled dorsal spiny rays of catch landed.
