Abstract:
The 2011 assessment of abalone in Zones A-D is updated to take new data into account. Projections are shown for different scenarios for the future commercial and poaching catches in Zone A and Zone B. Current poaching levels (average of 2011 and 2012) if continued, would not be sustainable.
