Meeting Background

Researchers from the Rhode Island Division of Marine Fisheries, the Commercial Fisheries Research Foundation, and the University of Rhode Island are conducting a project to examine different harvest control strategies for the valuable Jonah crab fishery. A key component of this project is collaborating with Jonah crab industry stakeholders to design and test potential management strategies for the commercial fishery. Please note that this project is an academic research project and is being conducted independently of the Commission’s management process for the species.

We invite Jonah crab harvesters, processors, dealers, and other stakeholders to participate in an initial collaborative workshop where we will 1) provide background and description for the project and 2) collect stakeholders’ opinions on fishery assessment methods and management strategies to be tested moving forward. It is expected that the results of this simulation-based research will be informative to future Jonah crab research and management. Some background information will be made available to registrants prior to the workshop.

This research has been approved by the University of Rhode Island Institutional Review Board.
