assessment report which describes the
fisheries, evaluates the status of the
stock, estimates biological benchmarks,
projects future population conditions,
and recommends research and
monitoring needs. The assessment is
independently peer reviewed at the
Review Workshop. The product of the
Review Workshop is a Review
Workshop Report documenting Panel
opinions regarding the strengths and
weaknesses of the stock assessment and
input data. Participants for SEDAR
Workshops are appointed by the Gulf of
Mexico, South Atlantic, and Caribbean
Fishery Management Councils and

SEDAR conducts updates of
benchmark stock assessments
previously conducted through the
SEDAR program. Update assessments
add additional data points to datasets
incorporated in the original SEDAR
benchmark assessment and run the
benchmark assessment model to update
population estimates.
The greater amberjack update
assessment will update the SEDAR 9
benchmark of Gulf of Mexico greater
amberjack. The update process consists
of a series of webinars.
Greater Amberjack Update Schedule:

Using updated datasets adopted
during the Data Webinar, participants
will employ assessment models used in
SEDAR 9 to evaluate stock status,
estimate population benchmarks and
management criteria, and project future
conditions. Participants will
recommend the most appropriate
methods and configurations for
determining stock status and estimating
population parameters.
