Polartorsk
The stock of polar cod in the Barents Sea is quite large, probably between 1.5 and 2 million tonnes. This resource has not been exploited to any noticeable degree since the early 1970s. The distribution area and the size of the stock are mapped by acoustic methods during an annual ecosystem survey i...
