Description
Summary:During the period 21 June - 15 July 1978 investigations were carried out on the Barents Sea capelin stock. Capelin larvae were caught with a Gulf III plankton sampler, and an acoustic survey was made of 1 year and older capelin. The capelin stock was smaller than it had been the preceeding summers. The 2 years old capelin were very numerous, but very small quantities of 1 year old capelin were recorded. Geographical distribution and length frequency is shown for each yearclass. Hydrographical conditions are briefly discussed.
