Distribution and abundance of demersal juvenile cod (Gadus morhua) from inshore to offshore locations
The preliminary results of the first systematic survey to examine inshore and offshore distribution of demersal juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), carried out in December 1992, is presented. The sampling gear used was a 3-bridle Campelen 1 800 shrimp trawl outfitted with 14 inch rockhopper ground...
