Ultimate
Goal
Identify research areas where GLOBEC results suggest a new conceptual model of biological processes in the Georges Bank/Gulf of Maine region and develop a plan for testing
these hypotheses.
Specific
Goals
¥To provide updates on
population dynamics modeling, spatial distributions,
and on egg production, growth, and mortality data.
¥To identify important
events or problem areas that need attention.
¥To identify what data must be shared between groups to
further the understanding of the target
species.
¥To compare patterns of
variability in target species with one another
and with other important species.
