| Summary: | No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. The main spawning grounds for Icelandic cod (Gadus morhua) are located along the southwest coast, however the small scale structure within this area is not well documented and recent research has identified other areas contributing to the pelagic juvenile population (Marteinsdottir et al, 2000). By examining the distribution of fisheries targeting spawning cod and confirmed spawning cod samples collected by the Marine Research Institute, we address the following questions: 1. How do the spatial distributions of demersal trawl and gillnet differ during the spawning season? 2. Is there a small scale structure withtin the southwest spawning grounds? 3. What is the relative contribution of other areas to the spawning population? ... |
