Lumpfish working group meeting

6-10 June 2016 – Caroline Durif participated in the meeting of the lumpfish working group in Nuuk, Greenland. Participants from Norway, Iceland, Canada and Greenland presented methods for assessing the status of lumpfish stocks as well as ongoing research. A field trip was organized to collect lumpfish and demonstrate tagging methods. Although a little late in the season, four individuals were caught, three of which were tagged with Pedersen tags!
