AFBI along with partners in Cefas, in the England and Wales, and the Marine Institute, in the Republic of Ireland, have begun a 3 year programme of tagging cod in the Irish Sea, funded through the European Commission. Of primary interest to the project is to better understand cod mortality, abundance, distribution and movement patterns within the Irish Sea and neighbouring areas. By addressing these issues it is hoped that differences of opinion between the industry’s perception of cod abundance and the scientific assessment of the stock can be realigned to provide a consensus opinion supported by all.
