GFSAFE015 - Groundfish Economic SAFE: number of vessels catching groundfish off Alaska by area, vessel category, and target

Description

The Economic Status Report for Groundfish Fisheries of the Gulf of Alaska and Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands (Groundfish Economic SAFE) is produced annually by NOAA Fisheries, Alaska Fisheries Science Center to summarize available economic data about federal groundfish fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) and the Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands (BSAI). The GFSAFE series of reports presents selected statistics from the Groundfish Economic SAFE describing various aspects of the economic performance of the fisheries, including total and retained catch; bycatch; ex-vessel and first-wholesale production, price, and value; and effort.
