Fisheries Science
Sustainable fisheries management depends on sound, timely scientific advice. The Fisheries Science Program delivers this through a rigorous, peer-reviewed stock assessment process, utilizing a mix of fishery-independent surveys and fishery-dependent monitoring, complemented by research from coastal state, federal, and academic institutions. The program also focuses on developing innovative scientific methods and enhancing state stock assessment capabilities, while coordinating and expanding collaborative research and data collection efforts.

The species of interest for an ageing workshop were Atlantic croaker, black sea bass , bluefish , river herring (alewife and blueback), striped bass, and tautog. Each of these species previously had their own ageing workshop and the group felt that these would be most productive to include in the QA/QC exercise.
