    An updated assessment of the Agulhas sole resource, Austroglossus pectoralis
    (2016-09) Butterworth, Doug S; Glazer, J P; Fairweather, T P; Durholtz, M D
    This analysis updates that of Butterworth and Glazer (2014), which considered two hypotheses of decreasing catchability and of decreasing productivity to account for a recent large drop in CPUE. Two further years of data reflect some increase in CPUE. For the most pessimistic scenario (a decrease in productivity, which remains at its current reduced level into the future), projections are somewhat more positive than previously, with recent biomasses estimated higher and projected to decrease more slowly if the 2013 effort level is maintained.
