Description:

The past few years have been especially remarkable, with the obvious change in ocean conditions and the continued presence of the “warm blob.” These changes have shown how the ocean is affected by prolonged warm conditions, and how the dynamics of species within it are changed as a result. Small pelagics are especially responsive to warm conditions, most notably within their placement (north, south, inshore, offshore). Information and research on sardine and other CPS stocks are sorely needed in order to provide an accurate coast-wide assessment for proper management in the upcoming years. It is the mission of the Trinational Sardine and Small Pelagics Forum to encourage collaboration between Canada, Mexico, and the United States in improving coast-wide stock assessments: sampling for age, size composition, reproductive state, regional biomass estimates, stock structure, development of a common data base, following industry trends and issues and understanding of the role of sardine and other small pelagics in the ecosystem.
