In 2016, the Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Consortium invited proposal submissions to recommend an experimental design for estimating the abundance of red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) in the U.S. portion of the Gulf of Mexico
Here are the final reports from the six funded experimental design projects:
- Change-in-ratio methods for estimating recreational exploitation rate and absolute abundance of Gulf of Mexico red snapper
- An experimental design to estimate absolute abundance of red snapper in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico
- Methods for the determinaton of high precision estimates of Red Snapper abundance in the Gulf of Mexico
- Red snapper data collection, spatial modeling and population assessment in northern Gulf of Mexico
- A stratified random survey, tagging study (conventional and telemetry), fish health evaluation, and genomics study of red snapper, Lutjanus campechanus, in the northern Gulf of Mexico
- Towards an estimate of the absolute abundance of red snapper in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico
