Since 2012, this stock has been assessed separately, as a subset in the Northern contingent by Canadian scientists (DFO) and as a whole by American scientists (NOAA). A recent assessment by DFO tuned to a Canadian-only egg index was recently peer-reviewed and may provide information on that component of the stock (DFO, 2023). A similar analysis has been undertaken by NOAA as a management track assessment in 2023 (NOAA, 2023).
