Description:
"The data collected by the POP are used by scientists in a variety of ways. Observed catch and effort data help confirm and augment the information provided through the mandatory submission of self reported Pelagic Logbook forms by vessel owners and operators. Observed catch and effort data are also important in evaluating the effectiveness of management measures, as well as providing information for evaluating the stock status of harvested marine species. The purpose of this document is to provide a general overview of the POP and summarize the data collected in the western North Atlantic by the SEFSC during the 5 years between 2007 and 2011"--Introduction.
