| Considered a management unit: An aquatic resource or fishery is
declared as [Fishery] Management Unit if it is
effectively the focus for the application of selected
management methods and measures, within the broader
framework of a management system. According to the FAO
Glossary for Responsible Fishing, "a Fishery Management
Unit (FMU) is a fishery or a portion of a fishery
identified in a Fishery Management Plan (FMP) relevant
to the FMP's management objectives." FMU's may be
organised around fisheries biological, geographic,
economic, technical, social or ecological dimensions ,
and the makeup and attribute of a fishery management
unit depends mainly on the FMP's management
objectives. |
| Jurisdictional distribution: Jurisdictional qualifier (e.g.
"shared", "shared - highly migratory") of the aquatic
resource related with its spatial distribution. |
| Environmental group: Classification of the aquatic
resource according to the environmental group (e.g.
pelagic invertebrate, or demersal fish) to which the
species belong. |
| Reference Year: The Reference Year is the last year considered in the stock assessment and/or fishery status. |
| | | | | | Aq Res State Trend Fcur/F0.1: Ratio between the observed fishing mortality coefficient during the last year of the series and F0.1. Fcur/FSYcur: Ratio between the observed fishing mortality coefficient during the last year of the series and the coefficient that would give a sustainable yield at the current biomass level. Fcur/FMSY: Ratio between the observed fishing mortality coefficient during the last year of the series and the coefficient that would give a maximum sustainable yield over the long term. Bcur/B0.1: Ratio between the estimated biomass for the last year and the biomass corresponding to F0.1. Bcur/BMSY: Ratio between the estimated biomass for the last year and the biomass corresponding to FMSY. Unless otherwise indicated, the indicators were based on the Schaefer dynamic production stock assessment model. Habitat Bio Climatic Zone: Tropical. Depth Zone: Coastal (0 m - 50 m).

Water Area OverviewGrunts (Pomadasys spp) - Guinea-Bissau and Guinea Aq Res Struct Biological Stock: Yes Pomadasys jubelini and P. incisus are the main species in the group of species Pomadasys spp. which also includes P. rogeri. The three species are found in Guinean and Guinea-Bissau waters. More present in coastal waters than the other two species P. jubelini is important in artisanal fisheries that use purse seine. The Working Group considered a single stock for Pomadasys spp. Exploit Fishery Indicators | Type | Measure | Value | Unit | Time period |

Bio Assess Assessment year: 2011 The CECAF Working Groups have adopted the following Biological Reference Points (BRPs): - Limit Reference points: BMSY and FMSY - Target Reference Points: B0.1 and F0.1 Stock status is assigned based on current estimates of fishing mortality (Fcur) and biomass (Bcur) relative to these target and limit reference points (Bcur/BMSY, Fcur/FMSY, Bcur/B0.1, Fcur/F0.1). The results from the stock assessment of this stock are found under the “Biological state and trend section”. Assess Models Type: Biomass-aggregated Schaefer dynamic production model The initial input parameters were, r (intrinsic growth rate) = 2.00; K (initial biomass) = 90 000 and BI/K (biomass of the stock at the beginning of the data series, compared with the initial biomass) = 50 percent. The data used for the model are those of Guinea and Guinea-Bissau for the period 1990 to 2009. The CPUE observed and adjusted by model is that of the Guinean demersal fish trawlers. Results The model reflects the trends in the Guinean and Guinea-Bissau fisheries. The results indicate that the stock is fully exploited. The assessment by the last Working Group was done with Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. The results indicated that the stock of these three countries was overexploited. Sci Advice Not to increase total effort above the 2009 level. Total catch should not exceed the average of the catches from 2007-2009 (3000 tonnes per year).
