| Gulf Menhaden Reference Points Workshop - Day 2 In an effort to begin the dialog needed to consider appropriate reference points for Gulf Menhaden management, the GSMFC hosting a management objectives and reference points workshop February 12-13, 2019. The workshop was facilitated by Dr. Michael Jones from Michigan State Univ. Dr. Jones has worked on the Atlantic in the past with their benchmark discussions for Atlantic Menhaden. This workshop is the first step in determining if and how benchmarks can be applied to management of this population in the Gulf of Mexico. |
