SUMMARY

SUMMARY

IDENTIFICATION

SCIENTIFIC NAME(s)

Gadus morhua

SPECIES NAME(s)

Atlantic cod

Although their distributions overlap, Norwegian coastal cod is assessed separately from cod in the Barents Sea. However, further stock structuring between fjords is very likely so any smaller stocks and the genetic diversity they represent may be at risk (ICES, 2012a).
