Abstract:Recruitment to the Faroe Plateau cod (Gadus morhua) stock (62°N, 6.8°W) is highly variable between years, and availability of suitable prey during the early life stages may determine the year class strength. Here we first investigate interannual variability in recruitment (1983–2017) of cod based on survey data and data from stock assessments. Positive relationships between the spawning stock biomass and larval abundance and between juvenile abundance and recruitment at year 1 were detected. However, the relat… Show more
