Target description
a) Demersal fish: Long-term stability of distribution, biomass and abundance of targeted species on the assessment area. b) Demersal fish: Long-term stability of demersal communities on the assessment area. c) Pelagic fish- anchovy: Long-term stability of anchovy egg and larval abundance. d) Shellfish: Long-term stability of targeted species biomass indices.
a) Demersal fish: Demographic structure remains unchanged. b) Pelagic fish- anchovy: Demographic structure, sex ratio and fecundity remain more or less stable over time. c) Pelagic fish- sardine: Demographic structure, sex ratio and fecundity remain more or less stable over time. d) Coastal fish: Long-term stability of composition, biomass indices and length structure of targeted species. e) Shellfish: Demographic structure of targeted species remains more or less stable over time.
