A review of the status of the cod stock in NAFO Division 3M

The analysis of the cod stock made last year indicated a collapse of the population, originally produced by a severe overfishing of some past abundant year-classes, that became heavier by the failure of the recruitment since 1995. New information from the fishery and from the July survey, both in 2000, coincides to indicate that the situation remains steady at a very low level without some sign that could foretell good recruitment.

This study was supported by the European Commission (DG XIV, Study 98-048), CSIC, IEO, IPIMAR, and the Basque Government.
