| Integration rule description for criteria | D3C1 and D3C2 must be both in GOOD in 100% of the elements assessed. |
The condition of the stock is evaluated by integrating the evaluations of criterion D3C1 and/or criterion D3C2 obtained for this stock. The integration method used is the "One Out All Out" (OOAO) method. This means that all criteria assessed must be within values describing maximum sustainable yield.
|
To the purpose of this assessment we considered only D3C1 anbd D3C2 criteria, since methodologies for assessing D3C3 criteria are not yet consolidated at Mediterranean and suregional level. for GES assessement at stock level, the outcomes of assessments of criteria D3C1 and D3C2 were integrated: i) when both criteria provided a "good" status, the related stock was considered to be in "good" status; ii) when according to at least one criteria stock was assesed as being "no" good, the stock was reported to be in "no" good status; iii) when no criteria was available, or only one criteria was applied indicating the presence of a "good" status, status status was defined as being "unknown". GES was expressed as number (and percentage) of stocks that were in good status, no good status and unkonwn status. under development |
The integration method used for the criteria was the following: If 2/2 criteria assessed were ‘good’, the overall status of the species was determined to be ‘good’; if one criterion was determined to be ‘good’ and the other as ‘not good’, the overall status of the species was determined to be as ‘not assessed’; if 2/2 criteria assessed were ‘not good’, the overall status of the species was determined to be ‘not good’. In accordance with the ‘Guidance for Assessments Under Article 8 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive’ there is no integration at species level; however, since the majority of the species were found to be in ‘not good’ status, on the basis of expert judgement, GES for commercially exploited species is expected to be achieved later than 2020. |
