| Main Descriptors | Considered a single stock: No
Spatial Scale: Sub-Regional
Reference year: 2013 |
| Considered a single stock: A group of individuals in a species occupying a well defined spatial range independent of other stocks of the same species. It can be affected by random dispersal movements and directed migrations due to seasonal or reproductive activity. |
| Spatial Scale: Spatial scale contains a standard term such as Global, Regional (e.g. for the whole Atlantic), sub-regional (e.g. for a part of the Atlantic), national, local (for sub-national levels). |
| 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. |
| | | | | | Biological State and Trend Exploitation rate is higher than the Patterson’s reference point (E=0.50). *The ratio E/Eunique refers to the the ratio between the current exploitation rate (E = F/(F+Z)) and the target exploitation rate, which according to the above mentioned framework is set to E = 0.4. Habitat and Biology Climatic zone: Temperate. Depth zone: Coastal (0 m - 50 m); Shelf (50 m - 200 m). Horizontal distribution: Neritic. Vertical distribution: Pelagic. Geographical Distribution Jurisdictional distribution: Shared between nations Water Area Overview Spatial Scale: Sub-Regional Geo References  | | Geographic extent of Anchovy - Northern Adriatic Sea

The following area codes have been found as intersecting the distribution of Anchovy - Northern Adriatic Sea Resource Structure Considered a single stock: No Assessment Assessment Model Type: Age-structured State-space stock assessment model (SAM) SAM tuned by acoustic Overall Assessment Results The WGSASP [Working Group on Stock Assessment of Small Pelagic Species] agreed in the improvements of some parameters in the assessment respect to last year: in particular, the Fbar was set equal to 1-2, the plus group was set at age 4+. The results are consistent with last year estimations from SAM model. Due to unclear historical perspective, reference points cannot be updated. Advice is therefore provided on a precautionary basis (exploitation rate and biomass percentiles). WGSASP recommended a revision of the input-basic data (e.g. age structure) including testing the use of recent biological data (length structure and ALKs) from the eastern area in the older part of the eastern landings time series.
