SAFMC Snapper-Grouper MSE
The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council (SAFMC) is working with Blue Matter Science Ltd. to conduct a Management Strategy Evaluation (MSE) to describe the expected outcomes of different management approaches for the Snapper-Grouper Fishery. More information on the project is available on the Project Overview page.
This site will be updated periodically with notes on project progress, background materials, presentations and reports, and other information relating to this project.
