SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of this meeting is for the EOP
Committee and AP to provide feedback on the results and future
application of a research project the Council is collaborating on with
a research team from Rutgers University. The project developed forecast
models to predict short-term (1-10 years) climate-induced distribution
changes for four economically important Mid and South Atlantic managed
species (Summer Flounder, Spiny Dogfish, Illex Squid, and Gray
Triggerfish). The forecast model was initially developed, fully tested,
and evaluated for summer flounder and has been fitted and applied to
the other three focal species. The EOP Committee and AP will provide
feedback on the model results, potential model utility, and possible
future science and management applications. EOP Committee and AP
feedback, as well as input from the Council's Scientific and
Statistical Committee (SSC), will be presented to the Council for their
consideration.
A detailed agenda and background documents will be made available
on the Council's website (<a href="http://www.mafmc.org">www.mafmc.org</a>) prior to the meeting.
