|
|
NOAA has released recalculated recreational catch estimates for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts going back to 2004 using what it says is an improved estimation method. The new method is part of NOAA’s overall work to improve the accuracy of the recreational catch data it collects and reports—and which it uses to set recreational catch limits and quotas.
According to NOAA, the improved methodology addresses a key issue identified in the 2006 report by the National Research Council, which identified a mismatch between the way NOAA gather information from anglers and how it uses those data to generate estimates.
