A Phase ‘0’ review of the biology and fisheries potential of the marine gastropods Astraea gibberosa, Euspira lewisii, Fusitriton oegonensis, Nucella lamellosa, and deep water snails of the family Buccinidae This paper presented a review of the biology and fisheries of marine gastropods and deepwater snails. [...] Working Paper I2002-05: Geoduck stock assessment framework in British Columbia The paper presents a review of the current approaches to the assessment of geoducks in the Pacific Region. [...] The Subcommittee noted that there are some areas of the coast that have large discrepancies in the estimated biomass compared to the biomass perceived by the industry. [...] During the introductory remarks the objectives of the meeting were reviewed, and the Subcommittee accepted the meeting agenda. [...] The biological parameters measured in Drury Inlet would be a useful starting point as the assessment was conservative, and the parameters identified are within the range identified for shrimp trawl in other areas of B. C. The Subcommittee recognized that care should be taken when applying the results in other areas.
