• Description:
  An example application of a tiered ABC control rule is provided for U.S. Atlantic domestic shark stocks managed by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Atlantic Highly Migratory Species (HMS) Management Division. A minimum estimate of stock assessment scientific uncertainty was obtained from meta-analysis of among assessment variability in historical U.S. Atlantic HMS domestic shark stocks assessed multiple times within the Southeast Data Assessment and Review (SEDAR) process during the last 20 years.
