Two stratified random otter trawl surveys covering depths of 400 m to 1500 m and targeting Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) were conducted in NAFO Division 0A (Baffin Bay). The first was conducted in northern Div. 0A from September 4 to 12 in an area that had not been previously surv...
