The complex population structure of Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) was studied in the northeast Atlantic. Biological and environmental data from 1970-2015 of 13 local, coastal and oceanic areas of the North Sea, Skagerrak, Kattegat and western Baltic were analyzed. The aim was to identify distin...
