Eleventh Joint IATTC-NC Working Group Meeting on PBF Management

The ISC Pacific Bluefin Tuna Working Group (PBFWG) will present updated analyses of conversion factors used for transferring catch limits across fishery sectors (e.g., WCPO small fish to WCPO large fish and WCPO to EPO), including their implications for maintaining equivalent fishing intensity. Conversion factors will also be considered as part of the long-term harvest strategy (see Agenda 5.2), as appropriate.
