This campaign, financed entirely by the Spanish administration, is part of the agreement established between the SGPM and the IEORealization of research program in the fisheries as well as the research project funded by the General Secretariat of R & D of the Xunta de Galicia: Identification of commercial products from La Raya through DNA technology, developed in collaboration with the University of Vigo and the Technological Center of the Sea (CETMAR). Currently there is a moratorium on fishing for the commercial species of the Great Bank of Newfoundland, so the results of this campaign represent a valuable information for the Spanish administration. OBJECTIVES This campaign belongs to the series destined to obtain indices of abundance and to know the structure of the populations of commercial species in the area of Regulation of the NAFO, and in particular in the divisions 3N and 3O. WORK AREA Mainly worked in the queue of the Great Bank of Newfoundland outside the Exclusive Economic Zone of Canada, in divisions 3O and 3N of the area of regulation of NAFO.

Annually, the European Union develops two research campaigns in the area of NAFO (North Atlantic Fisheries Organization), one in the 3NO division and another in the 3M and 3L (Flemish Cap Series). This campaign is part of a historical series in order to provide indices for the evaluation of the stock of halibut and other groundfish species in the area such as flounder, redfish, grenadier, cod or shrimp. The Flemish Cap bank is an isolated bank of the American coastal platform with an area greater than 10,000 square miles and is located outside of the Exclusive Economic Zone of Canada. The exploitation of the resources of this area is regulated by the international agreements of NAFO. GOALS Estimation of abundance and biomass indices of the target species, as well as the study and analysis of the demographic structure of their populations and the oceanographic conditions in the Bank.
