COMMON NAMES
Halibut in 3NOPs4VWX5Zc
Atlantic halibut move extensively throughout Canada’s Atlantic waters (DFO, 2015) and are thus managed and assessed on this broad scale. Studies have shown migrations into US waters and there could also be exchanges with Icelandic waters (NMFS, 2009) but there is also evidence for separation of stocks (Shackell et al, 2015).
